10-28 Vehicle Care

Checking Coolant

The vehicle must be on a level

surface when checking the coolant

level.

Check to see if coolant is visible in

the coolant surge tank. If the coolant

inside the coolant surge tank is

boiling, do not do anything else until

it cools down. If coolant is visible

but the coolant level is not at or

above the FULL COLD mark, add a

50/50 mixture of clean, drinkable

water and DEX-COOL coolant at the

coolant recovery tank, but be sure

the cooling system is cool before

this is done. See Engine Coolant on

page 10‑26 for more information.

The engine coolant surge tank is

located toward the rear of the

engine compartment on the driver

side of the vehicle. See Engine

Compartment Overview on

page 10‑8 for more information on

location.

When the engine is cold, the coolant

level should be at the FULL COLD

mark on the coolant surge tank.

When the engine is hot, the level

could be higher than the FULL

COLD line. If the coolant is below

the FULL COLD line when the

engine is hot, there could be a leak

in the cooling system.

If the coolant is low, add the coolant

or take the vehicle to a dealer for

service.

How to Add Coolant to the

Coolant Surge Tank

{

WARNING

You can be burned if you spill

coolant on hot engine parts.

Coolant contains ethylene glycol

and it will burn if the engine parts

are hot enough. Do not spill

coolant on a hot engine.

{

WARNING

Steam and scalding liquids from a

hot cooling system can blow out

and burn you badly. They are

under pressure, and if you turn

the coolant surge tank pressure

cap — even a little — they

can come out at high speed.
