hkm_1 SG just wondering what is the diff between radiator coolant and engine coolant? can i put radiator coolant into engine coolant.
ditzy SG One is for the radiator, the other is for the engine. Both have been designed for specific purposes and operating temperatures.
Praetorian111 SG Engine coolant and radiator coolant are the same thing. Both can be put into your radiator reservoir. Unless you are talking with the assumption that engine oil is the same as the coolant. Then it is two difference issue altogether Cheers.
bo liao SG Hmm..tis is new to me...got engin coolent?drive few yrs liao only know put the " tang kee" water.... not pour green,blue or purple water into the plastic container at engine there enough already?
tailslide SG modern car engines are all water cooled. this effectively uses the radiator system and the coolants are referred to one another interchangeably. there are additives on the market that's suppose to reduce the oil temperatures during hard operations but dunno if they are known as "engine coolants" though.
Praetorian111 SG If I am not wrong in US they term radiator coolant as engine coolant. I might be wrong with this.
Xtraun SG oh...shd be refer to same thing...coolant...it comes in few colours...green blue..etc. prevent freeze and raise boiling temp. basically part of cooling system to cool the engine as heat produced as pistons moved
bo liao SG So i jus pour my rebina colour coolent enough already rite? cos after reading tis post, i go open bonnet on 2 vehicle, both like only got one place each to pour my rebina….
