no it should be ok to add cooloant but onething you might have to do is to bleed the cooling system to make sure there is no air trapped in the system to cause overheating.

What does the 'Check Coolant' light mean on a 91 Mercury Tracer wagon?
Check the coolant level in the radiator when it is cold. -------------------------------------------------------------------- **Actually the check coolant light indicates the reserve is low. When facing the engine with the hood up...look to your left and you should see the tank. Fill that to the fill line and then run the car until the thermostat starts to pull the coolant...add when it gets low and until it stops taking fluid. Do not add directly into the radiator unless the reserve tank is empty.

Auto parts stores sell coolant flush kits some are just a chemical you add to water after draining the old coolant. The other uses your garden hose fitting you install to flush the system after you drain the old coolant. I personally use the second method.

No need. Just drain the radiator and after adding the coolant just run the engine and add till full. I recommend getting non diluted coolant for the simple fact that it costs the same as the diluted mixture, so essentially your getting twice as much.
