The coolant is a mixture of water and anti-
freeze/corrosion inhibitor. It performs the
following tasks:
corrosion protection
R
antifreeze protection
R
raising the boiling point
R
If the coolant has antifreeze protection down
to -35 ‡ (-37 †), the boiling point of the cool-
ant during operation is approximately 266 ‡
(130 †).
The antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor concentra-
tion in the engine cooling system should:
be at least 50%. This will protect the engine
R
cooling system against freezing down to
approximately -35 ‡ (-37 †).
not exceed 55% (antifreeze protection
R
down to -49 ‡ [-45 †]). Otherwise, heat
