Yes but you should check both if you have a rad that opens. If the rad is low it will be drawn in immediately leaving no reserve and it is intended as a reserve.
there is an antifreeze overflow tank, look on the radiator next to the radiator cap and there should be a smallish hose, follow it and you will find the tank.
Put it in the radiator but also make sure the overflow tank is full. Follow the overflow tube from the radiator and you will find the tank.
To the overflow tank and if the radiator has a cap,you will need to fill it with the engine cold.
if your water/antifreeze gets to hot it pushes out the over flow tube into the overflow container, as it cools down it will suck it out of the overflow and back into the radiator.
In the overflow tank as well as the radiator. You should not do this while the engine is HOT!
It is no longer necessary to add just water to a radiator in newer cars like the 2005 Malibu. An antifreeze that is half water and half antifreeze is usually best. Add the 50/50 antifreeze to the radiator overflow tank. It should be a plastic, see through tank hooked to the radiator.
Always check and fill from the rad neck. If your car is equipped with a reservoir tank it will be attached by a hose to the neck of the rad. Follow it to find it.I hope this helps you. Mark
something.
it is filled in the overflow tank. the cougar has a sealed system and there is no radiator cap like typical cares
The radiator doesn't have a cap. The overflow reservoir tank has a cap instead. (Tan plastic tank on passenger side)
If you just want to add a little you can use the overflow tank to do it or if the radiator isn't full just take the radiator cap off and pour it in.
No.
