Filling
CAUTION: Two sealant pellets part no. 3634621, or equivalent must be added to the radiator whenever the cooling system is drained or refilled with fresh coolant. Failure to use the correct sealant pellets may result in premature coolant pump leakage. Do not add the pellets to the coolant recovery bottle, this may prevent the coolant recovery system from operating properly.1. Make sure the radiator drain cock is closed.
2. Check the strength of the old coolant, before attempting to reuse it.
3. When you need additional antifreeze solution:
^ Pre-mix ethylene glycol at a ratio of 50/50 with clean, distilled water.
^ Distilled water reduces the accumulation of scale in the cooling system.
^ For coolant use Dex-Cool orange colored silicate free coolant.
4. Place a large mouth funnel in the radiator fill opening.
5. Slowly add the coolant mixture.
6. Fill to 1/2 inch below the radiator fill opening.
7. Start the engine.
8. As the cooling system warms up and the thermostat opens, the coolant level will drop.
9. Add coolant until the level is up to the radiator fill opening.
^ Do not spill the coolant onto the exhaust system or other hot engine parts.
^ Under some circumstances the ethylene glycol in the coolant is combustible.
10. Replace the radiator filler cap.
11. Check the level in the coolant recovery reservoir, add coolant if needed.
12. Test the cooling system for leaks.
