Chemicals from your car should be disposed of properly and not carelessly let spill onto the ground either. Especially if you plan to grow anything, or for that matter naturally let anything grow.
the grass still grews in the spot where the antifreeze was. I know how a well works. Antifreeze aint as harmful as it use to be but yea I know it bad for the ECO-SYSTEM. But that little bit of antifreeze isn't going to make a difference to a well. And the oil being burnt aint going to either it just cause globle warming which is BS.

But yea that is why i told him to get a pan cuz just because I do something doesnt mean other should do it.

I won't get into global warming.

But carelessly burning and spilling things just because you don't see any effect isn't helping anything.

Just saying we should all be careful!

Flush the antifreeze out the top pipe into a bucket, then when it's mostly water in the system drain the bottom hose. Flush the antifreeze down the toilet. That's what I did on my 99, my replacement radiator does not have a draincock.
