satisfactory if it is between the upper and lower
level marks on the coolant reservoir. If the coolant
level is at or below the lower level mark, add tap
water (soft water) to bring the level up to the upper
level mark. Change the coolant every two years.
(See pages 8-51–8-61 for details.) Recommended oil:
