Don't feel bad you are not alone.
Pulled the roof panel off a tractor a couple of weeks ago so I could fix a sticky heater control, finished the job and topped up the rad but I did not run the engine.
Knowing it may need a little more coolant after it warmed up I left the new 2 gallon jug of antifreeze on the ground at the step to the tractor so I would not forget to top it up.
The next day time to feed the cows, climbed into the tractor and started it up then realized I forgot to put a few of the screws back into the control panel.
By the time I was done putting the screws in it was getting pretty smoky in the shed so I decided to drive the tractor out.
As soon as I rolled forward I heard a loud pop and knew exactly what happened.
Only good that come out of it was that the mangled jug still had a few cups left in it which was about all I needed to top off the rad.
