Coolant: Testing and Inspection
ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL CHECK
Check the engine coolant level at the reserve tank, not at the radiator. With the engine cool, the engine coolant level should be between the
"FULL" and "LOW" marks.
ADDING ENGINE COOLANT
If the engine coolant level is below the "LOW" mark, more engine coolant should be added. Remove the reserve tank cap and add engine coolant
until the reserve tank level reaches the "FULL" mark. Never fill the reserve tank about the "FULL" mark.
