Guest 1966-C95 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Does anyone know how to check for proper coolant level in a ENDTF673? I lost some coolant this weekend due to an overheat and need to be sure of proper level. Can any one reccomend a procedure for flushing out of the cooling system should I decide to change it completely ( pretty likely) . Thanks for your help guys.Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packer Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 poke your finger in the radiator - - - If you can touch coolant you're OK.If you can't reach the coolant,- - - put some more it! This method will still leave some room for expanction but still keep enough H2O and glycol to keep things cool! Try it ,you'll like it!

Packer Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 ← When filling the receantly flushed radiator.... try using de-ionized water. Even distilled water has some 'stuff' in it and will shorten cooland life. The cost is about $8.00 per fill and will do a much better job than tap water.

blackjack Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Hello I like to run the engine wile filling the radiator with fluid. I do this when the engine is cold and by the time its up to temp it will spill over any excess coolant to the roadside and be at proper level.
