Mini coiper Supercharger HELP!!
Mini coiper Supercharger HELP!!
Hi Guys,
while was pulling my supercharger off I just realized that after taking the dipstick tube some coolant might gone into that hole into the crankcase.. when you pull the supercharger coolant comes off from the water pump.
how bad it could be?!!

Just my opinion.
I drained the oil before start taking the car apart because I already intend to do a oil change anyway.
now should I fill with oil, run the car and then drain it again and fill with new oil?
im very honest I don’t know what a bit of coolant can do because my experience with cars is little a side start working on the mini recently because I found myself very passionate about this cars!!
I wonder how much coolant entered the engine and if it's not much I would do the following: Since the coolant went into the pan where the dipstick is inserted I'd just put a quart or two in to flush it out without starting the engine. If you want to be extra careful you could put some of that oil in through the dipstick hole using a flexible funnel or turkey baster or similar.
Honestly, opening up the oil drain plug will most likely do the trick. It's only gone down into the pan and hasn't been circulated through the engine. Then just fill it with oil and you're good to go. If you want to be cautious, take the oil pan off and clean it out then replace the gasket before reinstallation. Refreshes the oil pan gasket, so two birds with one stone.
