Start the engine and let it run until
you can feel the upper radiator hose
getting hot. Watch out for the engine

the level is lower, add more of the
proper
mix
through the filler neck
until the level reaches the base of the

time during this procedure if coolant
begins
to

of
the filler neck,
reinstall the pressure cap. Be sure the
