I’m not Catholic but they say confessions are good for you. I would like to confess that I did a very stupid thing yesterday to my series 3 Alpine. When refilling the radiator, I picked up a gallon jug of what I thought was antifreeze, I noticed it was flowing pretty slow and then I discovered it was 20W/50W motor oil.
The last time I did something this stupid was forgetting to re -connect the oil line to the gauge and as a result had oil all over my new carpet.
I think I poured about a quart of oil into the radiator before I realized my stupid error. I drained out all I could and filled the radiator with water.
QUESTION FOR THE FORUM. -How much damage could some oil in the coolant cause? And will you confess to doing something this stupid to your Alpine? Not so Coolcat Ed.
