SELECTION OF COOLANT
COOLANT
Relation between Antifreeze Concentration and Specific Gravity
Engine coolant temperature "C (OF) and specific gravity
Example
The safe operating temperature is -15°C (5°F) when the measured specific gravity is 1.058 at the coolant temperature
of 20°C (68°F).
Caution
1. If the concentration of the coolant is below 30%, the anti-corrosion property will be adversely
affected. In addition, if the concentration is above 60%, both the anti-freeze and engine cooling
properties will decrease, affecting the engine adversely. For these reasons, be sure to maintain
the concentration level within the. specified range.
2. Do not use a mixture of different brands of anti-freeze.
