    It is a very inexpensive job to do on your own

    $10 antifreeze

    $10 gasket and thermostat

    Trace the large hose that goes from the top of your radiator to your engine block and you should find your thermostat housing.

    this is thoroughly typical for a sitting motor vehicle to empty the antifreeze out of the little hollow on the backside of the water pump because of the fact the seal is out. this is going to drain the fluid out of the engine and radiator till it gets below that time. do no longer force it to the save with out checking it and a minimum of putting in water if the save isn't too some distance because of the fact it is going to easily blow it out under pressure besides. do no longer do this to get with the aid of although, water has a decrease boiling element than anti freeze.
