Charge Air Cooling System Coolant Level Inspection





Note: Make sure the intercooler system is cool and that the pump is not in the ON position.

1. Remove the charge air coolant cap (1).
2. Verify that coolant is visible near to top of the opening.

Note: Use a 50/50 mixture of DEX-COOL(R) antifreeze and clean drinkable water.

Pour the coolant in very small amounts to avoid coolant spillage from the charge air coolant cap port or from funnel.

3. Using a small funnel, slowly fill the charge air cooling system through the charge air coolant cap port with a 50/50 coolant mixture until the level is slightly below the charge air coolant cap port. Refer to Approximate Fluid Capacities ([1][2]Maintenance)
4. Install the charge air coolant cap (1).
