flush of the cooling system can be found in the Car
Service Manual. Following these recommended
procedures will ensure that the specified coolant
level and a 50/50 or appropriate mixture of coolant
and water is maintained.
Engine Coolant Refill Procedure
When the entire cooling system is drained and
refilled, the following procedure should be used to
ensure a complete fill:
NOTE: It is imperative the following procedure be
adhered to. Failure to do so could result in damage
to your engine.
❑
Remove coolant reservoir pressure cap.
❑
Remove the engine coolant outlet tube fill plug
on the engine.
❑
With the engine off and cool, add a 50/50
mixture of recommended cooling system fluid
and water to the coolant outlet tube fill neck
until the reservoir is full.
NOTE: DO NOT FILL COOLANT SYSTEM
THROUGH COOLANT RESERVOIR. COOLANT

TO ENGINE DAMAGE.
NOTE: Avoid spilling coolant on the front end
accessory drive belt, as this will allow the belt to
slip and become noisy.

Reinstall the pressure cap to the coolant
reservoir.
❑
Continue filling at the engine coolant tube fill
neck slowly while allowing air to escape.
❑
Reinstall the engine coolant tube fill plug when
the system is full.
