antifreeze, whats the purpose besides
Question, does anti-freeze serve any other purpose than just keeping the water from freezing? Why wouldnt just "distiiled water" 100%, work in climates where the outside temp never goes below 32 degree F.?
Does it help raise the boiling point of the water, does it have a conditioner in it, does it help reduce sytem pressure? Just wondering, because I have only 100% distilled water in my car right now, only temporary, I am flushing the system. |
it has a higher boiling point then just water if im not mistaken.. please correct me if im wrong.

Anti-Freeze also lubricates your water pump.

You drive around without a hood? Thats a bit odd....
AFAIK the coolant does make the water boil at a higher temp. So it is usefull all the time. |
