Checking the engine coolant
level
Look at the see–through coolant reser-
voir when the engine is cold. The cool-
ant level is satisfactory if it is between
the "FULL" and "LOW" lines on the
reservoir. If the level is low, have your
Toyota dealer add ethylene–glycol type
coolant for proper corrosion protection
of aluminum components.
The coolant level in the reservoir will vary
with engine temperature. However, if the
level is on or below the "LOW" line, you
should have your Toyota dealer add cool-
ant.
has
Always use ethylene–glycol type coolant
for a proper corrosion protection of alumi-
num components. See information in the
next column.
If the coolant level drops within a short
time after replenishing, there may be a
leak in the system. Visually check the
radiator, hoses, drain cock and water
pump.
If you can find no leak, have your Toyota
dealer test the cap pressure and check
for leaks in the cooling system.
