If engine is froze

Remove thermostat housing if poss to allow water/ice to expand as it thaws within engine or at least remove the bottom hose

If using heat to warm engine warm it up very slowly, hair dryer usually does the trick.

Dont forget to warm up the heater box as well before starting engine

Finished a Fiat Punto defrost yesterday using space heater blowing under car towards engine bay with bonnet propped open about 6 inches

Warm air flowed through the engine bay and I got away with no damage for the owner once engine started

Just checked; it's 16 degrees Celcius in the heated garage ...

Its not the fact its froze that does the damage

Its when the ice thaws - if it has nowhere to expand it can at best pop out a core plug or worse crack the block

Remove bottom hose NOW ! Well maybe not right now if you havin a beer or 3 - lol

[Frosticles]

just turned the garage thermostat down. Was tropical when I went to fetch the kids prezzies out of the Mex's boot.

[wetandwindy2]

same as me had to turn the heater down a tad but got antifreeze in it anyway

[wetandwindy2]

should you not have antifreeze in your system anyway as it helps to prevent corrosion in the system read that somewhere
