ENGINE COOLANT

Checking engine coolant

The concentration and level of engine coolant should be checked at the

intervals listed in scheduled maintenance information. The coolant

concentration should be maintained at 50/50 coolant and distilled water.

For best results, coolant concentration should be tested with a

refractometer such as Rotunda tool 300-ROB75240E available from your

dealer. Ford does not recommend the use of hydrometers or coolant test

strips for measuring coolant concentration. The level of coolant should

be maintained at the FULL COLD level or within the COLD FILL RANGE

in the coolant reservoir. If the level falls below, add coolant per the

instructions in the Adding engine coolant section.

Your vehicle was factory-filled with a 50/50 engine coolant and water

concentration. If the concentration of coolant falls below 40% or above

60%, the engine parts could become damaged or not work properly. A

50/50 mixture of coolant and water provides the following:

• Improved freeze protection.

• Improved boiling protection.

• Protection against rust and other forms of corrosion.

• Proper function of calibrated gauges.

When the engine is cold, check the

level of the engine coolant in the

reservoir.

• The engine coolant should be at the FULL COLD level, or within the

COLD FILL or MIN / MAX range as listed on the engine coolant

reservoir (depending upon application).
