• Robinair® Coolant and Battery
Refractometer 75240 –
Recommended refractometer to test
coolant concentration. (Rotunda tool
part number: ROB75240).
• Rotunda 328-R071–ELC (Antifreeze
Coolant ELC Contamination Kit) –
Evaluates the corrosion inhibitor
additive strength.
• The first step is once the coolant
concentration is verified to be in the
range of 40 – 60%. Test the
corrosion inhibitor additive
strength. If the test results show
the cooling system does not have
excessive contamination and the
corrosion inhibitor additive strength
is sufficient then no further action
is required. If the test results for the
Engine Coolant Circuit show the
cooling system has excessive
contamination or the corrosion
inhibitor additive strength is not
sufficient then add 47 fl oz (1.4 L)
of Motorcraft Specialty Orange
Engine Coolant Revitalizer. If the
test results for the Secondary
Coolant Circuit show the cooling
system has excessive
contamination or the corrosion
inhibitor additive strength is not
sufficient then add 16 fl oz (0.47 L)
of Motorcraft Specialty Orange
Engine Coolant Revitalizer.
• Motorcraft Specialty Orange Engine
Coolant Revitalizer – Additive to
boost the corrosion inhibitor level
based upon the test results of the
Antifreeze Coolant ELC Contamination
Kit. The Revitalizer may be added two
times over the life of the coolant. If
additional dosages are required, the
cooling system must be flushed and
refilled per the instructions in the
Workshop Manual.
Make sure to follow the proper coolant and
additive specifications. See Capacities
and Specifications (page 417).
Coolant Change
At specific mileage intervals, as listed in
the scheduled maintenance information,
the coolant should be changed. The
information display may display a message
to change coolant at this time. Add
prediluted coolant approved to the correct
specification. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 417).
Engine-driven Cooling Fan (Fan
Clutch)
Your vehicle may have an engine driven
cooling fan drive (also called a fan clutch).
This fan drive changes the fan speed to
match the vehicle’s changing cooling air
flow requirements. Fan speed, fan noise
level and fuel consumption all will increase
based on the driving conditions that
include trailer towing, hill climbing, heavy
loads, high speed and high ambient
temperature, individually or in combination.
The fan drive is designed to provide the
minimum fan speed (and resulting
minimum fan noise and fuel consumption)
required to meet the ever changing vehicle
cooling air flow requirements. You will hear
the amount of fan noise increasing and
decreasing as the engine power
requirements and vehicle driving conditions
change as you drive. This is to be expected
as being normal to the operation of your
vehicle. High levels of fan noise might also
be heard when your engine is first started,
and should normally decrease after driving
for a short time.
