    Hi Teacher Yap~
    Could you please me know how can I change the water / liquid which in the radiator? When I open the radiator cap ,it is water is “rusty”. Does it going to affect my car function?

    Thanks

      The best alternative is to get a mechanic to change the rusty water in your radiator. It cost only a few ringgit.
