Thread: will my car be ok? in cold weather

i took off the rad to get my turbo off well still no turbo to replace it with so its just sitting outside. idk if there is water/coolant in the block still or not.
its getting cold here real cold and im scared for my block.
what do i need to do to keep it safe?

Just drain the coolant to make sure its not all/part water and close up all ports with something to soak up any outside moisture and you will be fine

Ok man, thanks for the reply.

You car is going to blow up!!!!!!!!!!!!


j/k

i would think it would be a better idea to leave antifreez in the block.. i mean its ment not to freez

As long as there is coolant / water mix in the motor you will be fine just tape off the exhaust ports.

Ok thanks guys.
Here's what I did.
Removed the rad along with drained it from the rad ports.
Then removed manifold.
Thats how she is sitting today.
