Engine coolant is designed to remove excess heat from an internal combustion engine, prevent freezing and most importantly, provide corrosion protection so that the engine can operate in an efficient manner. Improper maintenance of radiator coolant exposes the engine to dangerous high temperatures which change the fluid to acid, resulting in a solution circulating through the system that corrodes rather than protects. As corrosion occurs, the metal deposits settle at the bottom of the radiator preventing the natural transfer of heat away from the engine. Protecting the engine for the service life of the car is the role of engine coolant.
