Answer:

forget about it.it will cause no problems at all.
wtf? how can you see it? do you mean the CV joint? 80 is a odd price.parts alone are more than that.why do you think axel is bad? whats it doing?
If an axle, you won't be able to drive the car. Simple as that.
you should get your system flushed. it will not freeze and will cool the system, but it contains many chemicals that can cause a lot of problems in the long run. it can damage the Radiator and cause some leakes. if the radiaters gets very rusty and under pressure it will crack and cause you more trouble. just fo to pepboys or any place and get the system flushed, its a good thing for the car any way to get flushed.
no problem. Buy a kit to check ur coolant, is cheapStart from that point compareing to what it says Warm up the engine, idle with cap off for an hour or so add full strenght coolant. in case u r paranoic Ps: wiper fluid has alcohol in it. that's it Coolant is to:1 cool off 2: not to freeze; 3 to protect from rust 1. will evaporate eventually 2 alcohol does not freeze 3 alcohol is used to clean electonic boards (evaporates quick and will not make the electonic board rust)
