Do not add engine coolant when the engine is hot. Steam and

scalding liquids released from a hot cooling system can burn you

badly. Also, you can be burned if you spill coolant on hot engine parts.

Do not put engine coolant in the windshield washer fluid

container. If sprayed on the windshield, engine coolant could

make it difficult to see through the windshield.

• Add Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant or equivalent

meeting Ford specification WSS-M97B51-A1. Refer to

Maintenance product specifications and capacities in this chapter.

Note: Use of Motorcraft Cooling System Stop Leak Pellets or an

equivalent product meeting Ford specification WSS-M99B37-B6, may

darken the color of Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant from

yellow to golden tan.

• Do not add/mix an orange-colored, extended life coolant such

as Motorcraft Specialty Orange Engine Coolant, meeting Ford

specification WSS-M97B44-D, or DEX-COOL威 brand with the

factory-filled coolant. Mixing Motorcraft Specialty Orange Engine

Coolant or any orange-colored extended life product such as

DEX-COOL威 brand with your factory filled coolant can result in

degraded corrosion protection.

• A large amount of water without engine coolant may be added, in case

of emergency, to reach a vehicle service location. In this instance, the

cooling system must be drained and refilled with a 50/50 mixture of

engine coolant and distilled water as soon as possible. Water alone

(without engine coolant) can cause engine damage from corrosion,

overheating or freezing.

• Do not use alcohol, methanol, brine or any engine coolants

mixed with alcohol or methanol antifreeze (coolant). Alcohol

and other liquids can cause engine damage from overheating or

freezing.

• Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to the coolant. These

can be harmful and compromise the corrosion protection of the engine

coolant.

To reduce the risk of personal injury, make sure the engine is

cool before unscrewing the coolant pressure relief cap. The

cooling system is under pressure; steam and hot liquid can come out

forcefully when the cap is loosened slightly.
