As Travis said, someone would have had to pour the coolant into the gas tank. Drain the gas tank and go from there.

dam, thats kinda funny. someone must had pulled a prank on you lol. theirs a drain plug i think its a 17MM take it out and drain all the "gas" out and put the drain plug back on and pour some fresh gas in it. and try in start it then. your coolant probably has a slow leak like mine it goes low every month or two only but dont over heat. and the gas someone probably put water in it. go to autozone and buy a gas cap with a key and lock.


If you want to id disconnect the fuel line from the fuel rail and put that line in a gallon jug and turn the key for about 10 seconds to get all the water out the wrest of the fuel lines and filters so it dont try in burn it in the engine.
