The radiator is definitely empty.
What I'm concerned with is if I fill the system back up again and then start the car, what happens when the water pump starts going? Its going to push the non frozen fluid right? But to where?
What about the electric aux water pump? If the fluid is frozen and the pump tries to run won't it burn out or snap something?
