Grand Prix V6-191 3.1L VIN M SFI (1998)
Coolant: Description and Operation
NOTICE: Antifreeze can be added to raise the boiling point of the coolant, but too much will affect the freezing point. Do not use a solution stronger
than 70 percent antifreeze, as the freeze level rises rapidly after this point. Pure antifreeze will freeze at -22°C (-8°F).
This vehicle has a newly developed engine coolant. GM Goodwrench DEX-COOL was developed in order to last for 240,000 km (150,000 miles) or 5
years, whichever occurs first. Follow the instructions in Draining and Filling Cooling System. Use only GM Goodwrench DEX-COOL or HAVOLINE
DEX-COOL when adding or changing the coolant.
A 50/50 mixture of ethylene glycol DEX-COOL and water will provide the following protection:
^
Give freezing protection down to -37°C (-34°F)
^
Give boiling protection up to 129°C (265°F)
^
Protect against rust and corrosion
^
Help keep the proper engine temperature
^
Let the warning lights and gauges work as they should.
