Recently, I wanted to change my radiator fluid. As I got under the car and opened the pet cock, I noticed that no antifreeze came out, then a few second later dripplets of brown started to come out. So I tried to add some antifreeze in the radiator and i just poured a little bit and thats all it would take. I think its clogged. what should I do?

What is in the recovery bottle? If it's thick brown or whitish fluid, check both engine oil and tranny dipstick, if mixing has occured in either one, it's not good! Let us know.
