Can running out of antifreeze ruin an engine?

antifreeze does two things. It keeps the water in the radiator from freezing in the winter, and helps prevent if from boiling over and evaporating in the summer. You can run your vehicle with water alone in moderate temperatures and it will do the job. But, if you mean by "running out of antifreeze" you mean there is no liquid in the radiator, then yes, your vehicle can overheat and ruin the engine.


How do I fix a2005 Polaris Sportsman 500 whos fan will not stop running?

Is the temp. light coming on? Check your coolant level in the overflow reservoir If the level is to low it could cause the fan to run more than normal. I have a 2002 Sportsman 500 and my light was coming on and the fan was running more than normal. I had a pin hole leak in the tubing between the radiator and the overflow reservoir This was causing it to leak antifreeze and allowing it to suck air into the cooling system. Which was causing my fan to run and my temp light to come on.


Does a car die when running if you have a blown head gasket even if the vehicle did not overheat?

It's possible. Contamination of the fuel with antifreeze will eventually take its toll on the vehicle, even if it doesn't overheat. Although I'd personally consider other reasons, as well.


Added antifreeze to surge tank on 2000 Alero now antifreeze leaks from back of engine only sometimes?

When running the air conditioner, there might be a small leak of fluid on the 2000 Alero after it is parked. This is normal as it is only the overflow valve being released. Always check the antifreeze level before operating the vehicle in the summer to prevent low antifreeze warnings.


Anitifreeze leaking out black overflow hose on firewall of 1998 Pontiac grand am what can this problem be?

Honestly I think that Pontiac made the overflow reservoir too small. I have to add antifreeze to my GF's Grand Am once every couple months. If its a consistent problem where you're having to add antifreeze daily/weekly the car may be running too hot, and should probably be looked at by a mechanic.

Why does my car overheat when it is in neutral?

Because the engine is still running while in neutral. Your problem is probably your radiator or lack of antifreeze. Antifreeze serves as what it's name implies and as as a coolant. Additionally since the automobile is not moving forward the radiator is not receiving ventilation provided by the incoming air.


You have antifreeze leaking only when car is running It is dripping down underneath the passenger side next to trasmission It is pure coolant You changed thermostat?

I would check the hoses leading into your radiator, and also the overflow for antifreeze. If that is not the problem, it could be your heater core. Your heater core might be leaking, you might have a hose leaking


Antifreeze keeps running out?

Antifreeze could be running out often due to a leak. It is important to inspect the radiator for small cracks or smoke.
