* Coolant protection checks should be made just prior to the onset of freezing weather,
where applicable. If coolant is dirty or rusty in appearance, the system should be
drained, flushed and refilled with the prescribed solution of cooling system fluid and
water. Use only permanent type coolant that meets Ford specifications ESE-M97B18-C.
See the engine manufacturer’s operating guide for supplimental corrosion inhibitor
specifications.
