How to Add Coolant to the Coolant
Surge Tank
If you haven't found a problem yet, but the coolant level
isn't at the FULL COLD mark, add a 50/50 mixture of
clean water (preferably distilled) and DEX-COOL@
coolant at the coolant surge tank, but be sure the cooling
system, including the coolant surge tank pressure cap, is
cool before you do it. (See "Engine Coolant" in the
Index for more information.)
A
CAUTION:
I
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. Never turn the cap when the
cooling system, including the coolant surge
tank
pressure cap, is hot. Wait for the cooling system
and coolant surge
tank
pressure cap to cool
if
you
ever have to turn the pressure cap.
