Alright a bit OT!! but my ditzy daughter for some unknown reason went
and dumped around a litre of Antifreeze down the oil filler of her
Mondeo earlier. Fortunately she realised her mistake and some muggins
looks like having to do an Oil change tomorrow;(.

If she had run the engine would this have harmed it at all?.

Never heard of anyone doing this before always a first time I suppose!
Anyone any ideas on what the outcome might have been if it had been
started?..

TIA......


Remember to warm the sump before draining and then I suggest to simply
put a bit of flush in to make sure the water is gone.
