First of all...Punctuation is a big deal on this forum and if you don't use it, posts such as yours will go unanswered because it makes it harder to read and less people care by the end of trying to get through it.

Could be a stupid question, but there is coolant in it right?

Or, they'll just be closed at the gate.
