How
to Add Coolant
to
the Radiator
(3800
V6
Engine)
I
NOTICE:
Your engine has a specific radiator fill procedure.
Failure to follow this procedure could cause your
engine
to
overheat and be severely damaged.
1.
You
can remove the radiator pressure cap when the
cooling system, including the radiator pressure cap
and upper radiator hose, is no longer hot.
Turn
the
pressure cap slowly counterclockwise until it first
stops. (Don’t press down while turning the
pressure cap.)
If
you hear a hiss, wait for that to stop.
A
hiss
means
there
is
still some pressure left.
