Drain the radiator, and pull the lower radiator hose off and drain. Then fill it up with straight anti freeze, that is if there is just water threw out the cooling system.

Yes, it just has water. The whole thermostat was replaced but the person who did the job filled it with water. Thank you!!

Just so you know doing this would make about a 50/50 mix since the block is not being drained completely. Make sure and purge the cooling system when refilling it. Here is how to do this... www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeTgmdRkQtY
