ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
Refer to your chassis operating guide for
information and precautions on filling, servicing
and checking the fluid level.
Do not remove the radiator cap while engine
and radiator are still hot. Always check coolant
level visually at the see-through coolant
reservoir.
NOTE: Your chassis engine cooling system is
filled with special extended-life coolant
that is not the same as common anti-
freeze available at retail outlets.
The coolant system MUST be refilled or
topped up with the same type of coolant
as equipped to maintain the special long-
life properties.
Workhorse chassis use GM Dexcool LLC,
which is a bright, pink/orange color.
Ford chassis use Ford Premium Gold
(GO 5), which is a golden color.
