* Coolant protection checks should be made just prior to the onset of freezing weather,
where applicable. If coolant is dirty or rusty in appearance, the system should be drained,

permanent type coolant that meets Ford specifications WSS-M97B51-A1. See the engine
manufacturer’s operating guide for supplemental corrosion inhibitor specifications.
