run car with no rad
 

hey i was just wondering, ive had to do some work on my car and removed the rad to have some more working space. is it okay to run the engine for a short period to move it around. like only in and out of the garauge

thanks

btw its 5spd so theres no tranny connection

ya its ok, just don't run it for too long

and be prepared to clean up coolant what was left in the engine.

connect the rad hoses together

the cloased loop will keep the pump wet and your floor dry:willy:

^ Clever.... a dry water pump is never good for things...

^^werd. Coolant also lubes the pump, but for short stints you might get away with it.
