You would certainly not want to put antifreeze down such a drain. I would also not put it into a septic tank. You'd probably kill a bunch of the good bacteria and contaminate the soil in your yard.

Additionally, you want to get rid of the junk (calcium chunks, sand (possibly remnants of the cast iron engine casting), etc).
