ok so last night when i pulled into my driveway my car started making a clunking noise. so i popped the hood and looked at my fluids and saw there was no antifreeze in my car. so today i got some and filled it back up. im just wondering if it is safe to go ahead and start the car of if i need to wait and let it sit for a bit.

Start it and hope you did not fry the engine. Be sure and look for leaks and purge all the air out of the cooling system.
