Checking Coolant - Oldsmobile 2000 Silhouette Owner's Manual

Checking Coolant

The engine coolant reservoir is located on the driver's
side of the vehicle, above the engine air cleaner/filter.
The vehicle must be on a level surface. When your
engine is cold, the coolant level should be at the FULL
COLD mark, or a little higher. When your engine is
warm, the level should be above the FULL COLD mark
or a little higher.

Adding Coolant
If you need more coolant, add the proper DEX
coolant mixture at the coolant recovery tank.
CAUTION:
Turning the radiator pressure cap when the
engine and radiator are hot can allow steam and
