Checking Coolant (4.6L V8 Engine)

The engine coolant surge
tank is located toward the
rear of the engine
compartment on the
passenger’s side of the
vehicle.

For more information on location, see

Engine

Compartment Overview on page 5-12

.

{

CAUTION:

Turning the surge tank pressure cap when the
engine and radiator are hot can allow steam
and scalding liquids to blow out and burn you
badly. Never turn the surge tank pressure
cap — even a little — when the engine and
radiator are hot.

The vehicle must be on a level surface. When your
engine is cold, the coolant level should be at the FULL
COLD mark, located on the side of the surge tank
that faces the engine.

Adding Coolant

If you need more coolant, add the proper DEX-COOL

®

coolant mixture at the coolant surge tank, but only
when the engine is cool.

{

CAUTION:

You can be burned if you spill coolant on hot
engine parts. Coolant contains ethylene glycol,
and it will burn if the engine parts are hot
enough. Do not spill coolant on a hot engine.

When replacing the pressure cap, make sure to turn the
cap until it clicks.
