I spilled oil in my diesel's cooling water, what do i do now?

Drain it all out and pray, dont start the engine either!I spilled oil in my diesel's cooling water, what do i do now?
if you are smart ,DRAIN IT!I spilled oil in my diesel's cooling water, what do i do now?
i work for a truck parts in puerto rico and... you have nothing to worry about





oil lubricate critical parts of the engine so a few oil in the water system don't affect in nothing





so buy a radiator flush bottle use it for 5 mins then add new water and coolant
if it was small amount leave it in so lube the water pump if it was a large amount drain it there is no damage done but if it was coolant in the oil u would be in trouble. Some of the rust on the walls on the water jackets will be free of some rust.





Good Luck Happy motoring
oil in the coolant is fine..been a mechanic for quite a long time and have never seen oil in the coolant hurt anything. as a matter of fact theres even oil in my coolant right now and its just fine.
Depends on how much did you spill? small amount you be alright large amount Cooling needs to changed out
Mazda tec is right you have nothing to worry about drain and refill i have 30 years experience in cars your car engine will blowup first before that oil gets hot enough to catch on fire
you could syphen it out coz oil floats or just drain it then flush it again mayby with kero
Hi


Drain all the coolant from radiator , then fill it up with water and vinegar keep it running like for few days , then drain it , rinse it with the hose pipe , fill it up with new coolant , and you will be OK
