Checking Coolant
The coolant surge tank is located in the engine
compartment on the driver’s side of the vehicle.
See Engine Compartment Overview on page 5-12
for more information on location.
{CAUTION:
Turning the surge tank pressure cap when the
engine and radiator are hot can allow steam
and scalding liquids to blow out and burn you
badly. Never turn the surge tank pressure
cap — even a little — when the engine and
radiator are hot.
The vehicle must be on a level surface. When your
engine is cold, the coolant level should be at the
COLD FILL line.
Adding Coolant
If you need more coolant, add the proper DEX-COOL
®
coolant mixture at the coolant surge tank, but only
when the engine is cool. If the coolant surge tank is
empty, a special fill procedure is necessary. See Engine
Overheating on page 5-23 for instructions on “How to
Add Coolant to the Coolant Surge Tank.”
