No, not really. You should be using a G-05 HOAT based formula as recommended by Mercedes. Ford now specs the same coolant and can be purchased at most autoparts stores. Just be sure that the spec is what I mentioned. It should be gold in color.
How do i add antifreeze to a pontiac grand am 2004
preferably distilled water
The bottle on the firewall with the radiator cap on it is where you add coolant.
It uses green. Add it in a 50-50 antifreeze and distilled water mixture.
You have the drain the lower radiator hose, 6.0 liter do not have a drain valve.
Ford vehicles come from the factory with a 50 / 50 mix of distilled water and the correct type of antifreeze for the vehicle Ford states not to exceed 60% antifreeze in the mix ( when you live in a colder climate ) They also state to not drop below 40% antifreeze in order to provide corrosion protection ( although the corrosion inhibitor package in the antifreeze does " wear out " * only add the mixture with the engine cold *
you open the plastic bottle and pour in the antifreeze
You can add it to the coolant reservoir. It's located in the top left corner of your engine. Make sure your car is cool before you add in the antifreeze.
Yes. Never add pure antifreeze. Pure antifreeze will actually freeze before a 50/50 mix. Add coolant that is a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water. You can buy it already pre-mixed.
in overflow jug
Ford vehicles come from the factory with a 50 / 50 mix of distilled water and the correct type of antifreeze for the vehicle for year round use Ford states not to exceed 60% antifreeze in the mix ( colder climates etcetera )
you can add antifreeze in 2 places. If engine is cold,open radiator cap and poor directly in.Also there is a antifreeze reservor thatr you can poor it in if it is empty. Remember just add fluid until it comes up to the cold line on resv.
