ENGINE COOLANT 7
The following explains your cooling system and how to add coolant when (. I
it is low. If you have a problem with engine overheating, see “Engine
Overheating” in the Index.
The proper coolant for your Cadillac will:
0 Give freezing protection down to -34°F (-37OC) .
0 Give boiling protection up to 262 F (128 C) .
0 Prote-ct against rust and corrosion.
Help keep the proper engine temperature.
Let the warning-lights work as they shoula.
What to Use
Use a mixture of one-half clean water (preferably distilled) and one-half
antifreeze that meets
“GM specification 1825-M,” which won’t damage
aluminum parts. You can also use
a recycled coolant conforming to GM
Specification
1825-M with a complete coolant flush and refill. Use GM
Engine Coolant Supplement (sealer) with any complete coolant change.
If you use this mixture, you don’t need to add anything else.
