Trooper LS V6-3.5L (1998)
Coolant: Description and Operation
ANTI FREEZE SOLUTION
-
Relation between the mixing ratio and freezing temperature of the EC varies with the ratio of anti-freeze solution in water. Proper mixing ratio can
be determined by referring to the chart. Supplemental inhibitors or additives claiming to increase cooling capability that have not been specifically
approved by Isuzu are not recommended for addition to the cooling system.
-
Calculating mixing ratio
NOTE: Antifreeze solution + Water = Total cooling system capacity.

Total Cooling System Capacity

A/T 8.4 Lit (2.22 Us gal)
-
Mixing ratio
Check the specific gravity of engine coolant in the cooling system temperature ranges from 0°C to 50°C using a suction type hydrometer, then
determine the density of the engine coolant by referring to the table.
NOTE:
1. Even in the areas where the atmospheric temperature is higher than 0°C, be sure not to use antifreeze solution at a mixing ratio lower than
20% so that the inside of the engine may not be corroded.
