Coolant water frozen - what next?

So it could've been water, oil, or antifreeze. Either you get lucky and manhandle it. Or you crash.
Doug
was anti freeze , this guy had been known to tear 4 speed shifters uo in the past , he definitly could man handle it...
you hit antifreeze on the top end , well over a hundred mph , and still pulling hard , see if you can manhandle it
 
BSB67 if your gonna give me a Red X could do us all the courtesy of explaining what you don't agree with..

I would never give you, or anyone a Red X, at least not intentionally. Must have fat fingered it scrolling on my phone.

That's what I figured... Kinda hard to disagree with memories of my pop...
Far as I'm concerned, feel free to give me an X if I deserve one... Just have the respect to explain why you disagree.....

I think most know that I’m no stranger to disagreeing. Just no point in throwing the Red X.

The worst I've personally run through? 7 quarts of trans fluid on the brakes just past the stripe at Mid Michigan. There is a rut in the shutdown in the right lane. I have to move over towards the center a bit to stay out of it. So that put the right tires right in the mess. It was a very quick release of the brake, gentle movement of the wheel to straighten up, and gentle brake at the end. The timeslip was 148. How do I know it was 7 quarts? I repaired the car that dropped the fluid.

under full power would definitly be a diff senario
 
This past weekend I got coolant and oil/filter back in the motor/radiator and fired her up. Started and idled nicely and the oil stayed oil.

Coolant system pressure check will be this coming weekend.

PS- used DadsBee’s oil filter draining tray idea and WOW, so much cleaner now!! Oil drained straight to the bucket and only a drop or two on K frame.

That's good to hear.
 
Coolant system pressure check passed at a holding steady 16psi.
 
First let's talk about the Red X you gave me for this post.... I'm gonna assume it was in error since it would be hard to disagree with....

My post was in response to KiwiGTX who must have seen the same program... Personally I haven't turned on a television is many years so no, I haven't seen it....
Yes, fat thumbs. lol
