6. Replace the cap. NOTE: Turn the pressure cap clockwise until

clicks are heard. Failure to tighten cap correctly may result in

engine damage.

After any coolant has been added, run the engine for a few minutes to

mix the coolant. Check the coolant concentration. Make sure the engine

is off and cool before removing the coolant pressure relief cap (see

proceeding steps on cap removal). Check the concentration per the

Checking Engine Coolantsection. If the concentration is not 50/50

(protection to –34°F/–36°C), drain some coolant and adjust the

concentration. It may take several drains and additions to obtain a 50/50

coolant concentration.

Whenever coolant has been added, the coolant level in the coolant

reservoir should be checked the next few times you drive the vehicle. If

necessary, add enough 50/50 concentration of engine coolant and

distilled water to bring the liquid level to the proper level.

If you have to add more than 1.0 liter (1.0 quart) of engine coolant per

month, have your dealer check the engine cooling system. Your cooling

system may have a leak. Operating an engine with a low level of coolant

can result in engine overheating and possible engine damage.

Recycled engine coolant

Ford Motor Company recommends the use of a recycled engine coolant

produced by Ford-approved processes in vehicles originally equipped

with Motorcraft Premium Engine Coolant (green-colored). However, not

all coolant recycling processes produce coolant that meets Ford

specification ESE-M97B44–A. Use of such coolant may harm the engine

and cooling system components.

Ford Motor Company does NOT recommend the use of recycled engine

coolant in vehicles originally equipped with Motorcraft Premium Gold

Engine Coolant since a Ford-approved recycling process is not yet

available.

Used engine coolant should be disposed of in an appropriate

manner. Follow your community’s regulations and standards for recycling

and disposing of automotive fluids.
