NOTE: A 50 percent mixture of antifreeze and water must be premixed before filling the system. The ability of antifreeze to remove heat from the engine is not as good as water, so pouring antifreeze into the engine first could contribute to an over heated condition before the liquids are completely mixed. Close all drain valves and fill the system. Use a mixture of 50 percent water and 50 percent ethylene glycol antifreeze to provide freeze protection to -36°C [-34°F], Coolant Capacity (Engine Only) Liter U.S.
Quarts Use the amount of DCA4 corrosion inhibitor given in Section V to protect the cooling system. Warning: Wait until the coolant temperature is below 50 °C[122 °F]before removing the pressure cap. Failure to do so can result in personal injury from heated coolant spray. Caution: During Filling, air must be vented from the engine coolant passages. Open the engine venting petcock and the petcock on the after cooler for after- cooled engines. The system must be filled slowly to prevent air locks. Wait 2 to 3 minutes to allow air to be vented, then add coolant to bring the level to the bottom of the radiator filler neck. Install the pressure cap.
Operate the engine until it reaches a temperature of 80°C [176°F], and check for coolant leaks and add coolant as necessary. 63 / 149 pages 10 .1 6C 8.3 10.5 6CT8.3* 8.3* 10.5 10 .1 12 .3 6CT A8.3 13.0
