chemistry does not require regular testing, but
the coolant can be tested with a FleetFix®
Maintenance Test Strip (to measure nitrite and
carboxylate levels) and the FleetFix® Dilution
Test Kit (to determine contamination and
protection levels of the ELC coolant).
The freeze protection level should be checked at
least twice a year using a coolant refractometer.
CAUTION
Extended Life Coolant (ELC) will test as out of
additives (SCA), but SCA should not be
added. Shortened engine life may be the
result of adding SCA.
