I had to remove my car's radiator to get it repaired. That may take several days to a week, since the repair shop is real busy. I want to move the car to a differerent place on the property. It will take 5 minutes at most to start it and move it. Is it safe to run an engine without coolant for a short time like this? It's an 80's car with 6 cyl engine if that matters. I dont think it can get real hot in that amount of time, but I thought I'd ask. I'm handy with cars, but no mechanic.
