Where is the coolant located in a car?
1 Answers
The coolant is located in the coolant reservoir on the right side of the engine compartment. The coolant reservoir has MAX and MIN level marks on the side. When the engine is cold, if the coolant level is below the MIN mark, it should be topped up. The amount to add should be based on the marks on the reservoir, ensuring it stays between the MAX and MIN levels. Below are the functions of automotive antifreeze: 1. Antifreeze: Coolant mixed with ethylene glycol can be used in temperatures as low as -70°C. The freezing point ranges between -20°C and -45°C, allowing for appropriate selection based on regional needs. 2. Boil prevention: The higher the concentration of ethylene glycol, the higher the boiling point of the coolant. 3. Corrosion prevention: The primary function of coolant is to prevent corrosion.
