The car must be equipped with antifreeze, although it will not affect the air conditioning effect, but it will affect the engine.
Car maintenance, replacing antifreeze is one of the most critical maintenance items. You must value the antifreeze benefits of antifreeze, but there are some important facts about your engine cooling system that need to be taken seriously
More than 50% of engine failures are caused by cooling system failures. The main cause of cooling system failure is damage to components or reduced performance due to corrosion. In summer, the probability of engine failure is significantly higher than usual, most of which are caused by the high working temperature of the engine, a good antifreeze must have good high temperature resistance, but also have anti-corrosion, rust removal and other functions.
Experts clearly pointed out that antifreeze must be used in summer, the boiling point of water is only 100 degrees Celsius, and the overheating of the engine will cause the water tank to "boil", the gas in the cylinder will expand, the air intake will be reduced, the power will decrease, the gap between the engine parts will be reduced, the lubricating oil will become thinner, and the friction between the engine parts will be intensified, and even irreparable damage will be caused such as "pulling the cylinder" and "holding the tile". The boiling point of antifreeze is above 120 degrees Celsius, and even the boiling point of high-quality anhydrous antifreeze cooling oil is above 168 degrees Celsius, which can prevent your car from "boiling" in summer.
Therefore, antifreeze, which is essential for protecting the cooling system, is only the "basics" to prevent ice formation in winter, and it is the "real work" to protect engine parts from corrosion!
-
No, that's two separate questions.
-
After adding the air conditioner, the sound is louder, the idle speed problem has not been involved, whether you are a novice or a veteran driving. If you are a novice, it may be your operation problem, I feel that adding an air conditioner will accelerate slower, which is equivalent to one less cylinder in the engine Other I don't feel anything.

The full name of antifreeze should be called antifreeze coolant, which means coolant with antifreeze function. Antifreeze prevents coolant from freezing and cracking radiators and freezing engine blocks or covers when the coolant freezes when parking in the cold winter. But we want to correct a misconception that antifreeze is not just for winter, it should be used all year round.
Antifreeze is a kind of coolant containing special additives, mainly used in liquid-cooled engine cooling system, antifreeze has excellent properties such as antifreeze in winter, boiling in summer, waterproof scale and anti-corrosion throughout the year. At present, more than 95% of domestic and foreign glycol water-based antifreeze is used. The main ingredient of antifreeze on the market is ethylene glycol, which has the characteristics of high boiling point and low freezing point.
Antifreeze also contains additives to prevent oxidation of glycol (which can form highly corrosive by-products), prevent corrosion, prevent foaming, etc.
Therefore, the composition of antifreeze used in the air conditioning water circulation system is the same as that used in automobiles, but the concentration is different. It is recommended that you use it separately.
-
It's the same, it's all called ethylene glycol, but the ratio concentration is different.
-
Of course, the principle is the same, except that the water freezes in the winter
-
For air conditioning water circulation system? Do you mean refrigerant for the refrigeration system or coolant for the heating system?
-
If you don't use a good antifreeze, you can change it every two years, but the first three years, and once a year after that, as long as you can guarantee a lot, it's good.
-
Normally, you don't need to add it often, thank you.
-
Generally, there are three colors, because the main components of antifreeze are ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and diethylene glycol, ethylene glycol is generally green, propylene glycol is red with a little orange, and diethylene glycol is the blue kind.
The main function of antifreeze is to protect the normal and good operation of the engine, circulate in the engine water tank, play the effect of anti-freezing, anti-boiling, anti-rust, anti-corrosion, etc., most of the antifreeze color is red or green, in order to observe whether it leaks, or distinguish it from other liquids of the engine, to avoid confusion.
-
Antifreeze has ethanol type, ethylene glycol type, and glycerol type. The full name of ethanol-based antifreeze is antifreeze coolant. It plays 3 roles, a vehicle does not start to prevent freezing, because the antifreeze is in the cylinder, the liquid becomes solid and the volume will expand, so it will freeze and crack the cylinder.
Another function is to cool the engine after the vehicle has been started. Prevent the engine temperature from being too high, causing damage to the engine. Antifreeze also serves to manage rust and prevent excessive limescale from causing clogged lines.
Antifreeze is generally replaced once every 2 years and 6w kilometers.
Long-term failure to replace the antifreeze will lead to changes in the quality of the antifreeze, which will reduce the internal anti-rust quality, and the radiator and pipes will be damaged. It will also affect the boiling point and freezing point parameters, affect the anti-freezing effect or cooling effect, and harm the engine. Don't wait until the antifreeze turns black to replace it, the blackening of the antifreeze means that the antifreeze has deteriorated badly.
Limescale is also formed a lot. There is already damage to the pipeline. Therefore, every time you do maintenance, you can use a freezing point meter to detect the freezing point value of antifreeze.
If the freezing point is too high, the antifreeze has deteriorated and needs to be replaced.
-
Automobile antifreeze generally has three colors, green (ethylene glycol), red (propylene glycol), and blue (diethylene glycol) have the same effect.
-
The common ones are: blue-green, red, two kinds.
It can't be mixed, and it's best not to mix the same color and different brands.
Generally, 1 year or 20,000 kilometers to change, each time all put off and replace the new one, it is best to rinse it with a small amount of new liquid after it is cleaned, and then seal the discharge port and then fill it (note that the new antifreeze should be exhausted!). )。
Add any kind of option, as long as you choose the appropriate nominal temperature according to the area where you use the car: -40 degrees in the north and -25 degrees in the south.
-
Green and red. It can be mixed, but the color will change, the main function of the color is to see the first time when the water tank is leaking, so that the difference is whether the water tank is leaking or the air conditioner is leaking. Change it once a year, or once every six months.
When the water in the tank is not enough, you can add it directly, and you don't need to replace it all.
In the north, it is generally enough to add minus 35 degrees. In the south, you can add a water tank treasure, don't waste unnecessary money.
-
The main components of antifreeze are colorless, and various colors are added dyes, such as the kind of high-grade antifreeze with strong bright green fluorescence is fluorescent yellow, and there is a professional manufacturer in Xiangyang, Ning'an Town, Ning'an City, Heilongjiang Province. Whether it can be mixed or not depends mainly on its main ingredients, not its color.
-
Red and green are common, but there are also yellow ones, and it is best not to mix them up with different colors. Affects freezing and boiling points.
-
There are generally two colors, light blue and light red. The antifreeze should be changed every two years, and it should be completely replaced, and antifreeze with different properties should not be mixed. Modern antifreeze is light red, you can also add light blue, but be sure to remember to replace it thoroughly, not mix.
-
There is no stipulation of what color the antifreeze must be, the manufacturer can produce a variety of colors, the key is that two different types of antifreeze can not be mixed, if it is not enough, make up for it, replace it after a long time, it is recommended to change it once every 10,000 kilometers.
-
Blue. Red. Green. Orange. Generally, there are more than four colors, do you know why it is this color, the key is to see if there is any leakage. It's all color development.
-
There are three colors of antifreeze, and different colors cannot be mixed and added, so is the same color okay?
-
Common antifreezes on the market are pink, yellow, and green.
-
The color of antifreeze is the same as people's clothes, as long as there are colors in the world, it can be matched. You can't look at the color of antifreeze, you have to look at its composition and freezing point.
Antifreeze is a mixture of alcohols such as methanol, ethanol (alcohol), ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and glycerol (glycerol) and water. At present, the most common high-quality non-toxic antifreeze in the domestic market is ethylene glycol and propylene glycol.
Alcohols are mixed with water, and the freezing point and boiling point are different in different proportions. The antifreeze makes use of this property to ensure that the antifreeze does not freeze at minus tens of degrees Celsius and does not boil at minus 100 degrees Celsius to protect the engine.
The color of the antifreeze is due to the addition of colorants. And methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and glycerol are all colorless. There are many claims on the Internet that different alcohols have different colors, which is wrong.
Different colors of antifreeze, as long as the type and proportion of the mixture are the same, the properties of the antifreeze are the same, can be mixed. When replacing the antifreeze, try to empty the original antifreeze, because after a long period of use, the antifreeze may turn ethylene glycol and propylene glycol into alkyd due to high temperature.
In modern cars, as long as the freezing point and boiling point of antifreeze meet the requirements, there is no need to limit which antifreeze is used. The standard for selecting antifreeze is the minimum temperature standard in the operating area of the vehicle, and then it is lowered by 10.
For example, the minimum temperature in Dingzhou, Hebei Province is minus -16, and the freezing point of the antifreeze used is best below -25.
Freezing point of different ratios of alcohols and water.
As can be seen from the figure above, in the most common ethylene glycol antifreeze in China, ethylene glycol and water, which are its main components, have different freezing points because of different volume ratios.
The basic principle of antifreeze is the different freezing points of different volume ratios of alcohols and water.

Is the glycol antifreeze all blue?
-
Hello! The situation you said is not allowed, because antifreeze is a chemical, all chemicals are corroded or the ruler bend, antifreeze is added with the same brand and label together will not produce rotten clothes and stuffy socks corrosion, but if it is mixed with other brands and labels, it will lead to corrosion of cooling parts, because different brands of chemical composition are different, will cause chemical reactions, so it is recommended that you do not mix, and it will be too late when there is an abnormality. If mine is helpful to you,! Thank you!

Generally don't go more than three years, my previous car changed twice in 5 years, once in the third year, drove 29,000 kilometers, and only changed in 2 liters of new liquid! The second time I changed it in the fifth year, I drove about 49,000 kilometers, and this time I put it clean, and I changed it to a new liquid, in fact, the freezing point will not decay much in a few years. But the corrosion resistance is definitely not good, so it is best not to exceed 3 years at most, and if the car is often used for more kilometers, it is better to change it in 2 years.
-
It's best to change it once a year, depending on your car, and different vehicles will be used for different times.
-
Lucent 100 antifreeze is replaced annually.
-
The functions of coolant are divided into: cooling, lubrication, anti-corrosion, anti-freezing; How long to replace depends on the formula of the coolant, silicate, the precipitation of silicon can protect aluminum, but the precipitation life of silicon is about 2 years, so it is replaced once every 2 years, the usual life of organic acids is relatively long, if the original vehicle is certified, organic acids can be used for 4 years or 20w; Coolant can not be used beyond the time limit, in that case, the aluminum parts, rubber parts, water pumps, sediment control is not good, the purchase of coolant in addition to the correct formula, the choice of boiling point is also very important, domestic ordinary antifreeze can only reach about 107 degrees, the good point is about 113 degrees, the boiling point of imported products can usually reach 129 degrees, the above are glycol-based products.
-
20,000km, that's about a year.
-
Manufacturers recommend changing it once a year, and you can observe the water temperature meter yourself.

Regardless of money, Taurus is the best van except for Langdi.
-
I'm a freshman, and I'm a Taurus as soon as I drive it, and I can't talk about contrasts (because I haven't driven any other van). The overall feeling is still good.
-
The specific problem is not described, but the common problem of the air conditioner is that it cannot be turned on, does not refrigerate or has a peculiar smell. If it can't be turned on, it is recommended to check the power supply line and see if the insurance has exploded. Check whether there is any leakage in the pipeline without refrigeration and whether refrigerant is needed.
If there is a peculiar smell, it is recommended to replace the air conditioner filter element and remove the dust.
-
The Taurus engine, although yes, has very little power and torque, that is, it is boring, and it accelerates very slowly with air conditioning, and it is very loud.
-
Brother: Don't do this in the future, I'd rather buy the original one for an extra 2,000 yuan. Look, the trouble is coming, right?
-
Check the idle speed of the computer to see if it can be solved.
-
Whether you installed the air conditioner of the original car or the auxiliary factory, the original car has an additive device, and the auxiliary factory does not.
-
You go to the professional store and ask the teacher to use the computer to check the idling speed and see if it can be solved.

The full name should be called automotive antifreeze coolant, which means coolant with antifreeze function, so that the car can continue to be used at low temperatures in winter. to prevent the cooling system from freezing in cold weather. The engine and its cooling system are made of metals, including copper, iron, aluminum, steel, and solder. >>>More
Normally, there is no need to deliberately exhaust the air after circulation, and the air is discharged through the water tank mouth, and it is possible for the warm air to have air, and the warm air return pipe is loosened. >>>More
In fact, different cars, for the replacement time and mileage of antifreeze is not the same, some cars can indeed be maintenance-free for life, because the antifreeze used when it leaves the factory is of better quality, so its antifreeze life can reach 200,000 kilometers, which is indeed maintenance-free for many ordinary family cars, because 200,000 kilometers are basically changed. But not all car antifreeze is of high quality. Generally speaking, the more expensive the car, the higher the quality of the antifreeze, the longer the replacement time, the cheaper the car, in order to save costs, the antifreeze used will be relatively poor, and the replacement time and mileage will be relatively short, so there is indeed no unified standard for how long to replace the antifreeze. >>>More
