It should take between 2 and 3 hours as it is hidden behind the right front wheel.

A 50/50 mix will get you enough protection for all but probably the most extreme climates. You can go into just about any place that sells anti-freeze and get it already pre-mixed 50/50. Its actually better to do it that way because its precisely mixed and used pure water for the mix rather than tap water.

SOURCE: my question is this,why is

Maybe penetrates inside the cylinder, through cylinder head gasket, and during the combustion evaporates and discharged through exhaust.
A radiator compression test might find the problem.

How to install engnie freeze plug 90 toyota celica st

Hi, are you talking about anti freeze, if so it goes in the engine coolant in the radiator, check the manufacturers specifications for the correct ratio of anti freeze to water for your climate, which I assume changes from season to season. In winter you may have to use 100% anti freeze for the coldest times of the year.

Honda has a blue anti-freeze that comes in their radiators. It doesn't have additives that can damage the water pump. Look on the back of the anti-freeze and get one recommended for honda or go to a dealer.

We are changing the water pump need to refill the system

If you are asking if you will need to drain the fluid then yes you will have to drain at least half of the anti freeze before removing the water pump. I would recomend buying an extra gallon before you start because if you are needing a new water pump the chances are that you have lost some fluid already. but you can reuse the fluid that you drain just make shure that you use a clean container to catch the fluid. Another note is when buying you anti freeze check what color anti freeze you have. You never want to mix green with orange.

Its best to check when cold since heat makes fluid expand. Always use 50\50 mix.

Car wont start after bad weather freezeing water pump.

do you get a spark first then go to the next steep, follow the spark from the coil to the plugs then check to see if you are getting gas. Take off the fuel line  and turn the key,maybe  the  gas froze too then check to see if the water pump cracked  or it there are any cracks in the engine
