How to Add Coolant to the Coolant Recovery Tank
If you haven’t found a problem yet, but the coolant level isn’t at or above
“FULL COLD,” add a 50/50 mixture of clean water (preferably distilled)
and
a proper antifreeze at the coolant recovery tank. (See “Engine
Coolant” in the Index for more information about the proper coolant
mix.)
A CAUTION
Adding only plain water to your cooling system can be
dangerous. Plain water, or some other liquid like alcohol, can
boil before the proper coolant
mix will. Your vehicle’s coolant
warning system is set for the proper coolant
mix. With plain
I water or the wrong mix, your engine could get too hot but you
~ wouldn’t get the overheat warning. Your engine could catch fire
~ and you or others could be burned. Use a 50/50 mix of clean
~ water and a proper antifreeze.
