IT doesn't matter what color coolant you use, it matters by what mixture you use it. Some ethylene glycol coolants are yellow, like Pres-tone for example, others are green. Follow the direction's on the jug for correct mixtures as some are premixed and others are not. If you already have coolant in your truck, and your wondering why it's one color or another, don't worry about the color, use a $1.00 hydrometer from Pep Boys, Auto Zone or anywhere, and check the mixture of the coolant to make sure your vehicles water coolant mixture will not freeze at a certain temperature, like 10 below or 20 below the freezing mark or what ever the manufacturer states it should be.

It was built with green.

How much coolant needs to be drained to change a water pump on a 1999 ford 150 4.6 liter thanks?

The coolant level (in the radiator)needs to be BELOW the bottom of the water pump in order to remove the pump without losing the antifreeze. Since the water pump is almost at the bottom of the rad, you may as well drain it all since it only takes a few minutes to do, and you won't risk losing it all.

Can coolant be checked with a volt meter?

if you can read voltage in the water of a radiator , then there is a problem and the water needs to be drained and flushed and new antifreeze installed . if you are using full strength antifreeze, it must be mixed 50/50 with distilled water only. never use tap water in a radiator ! Thanks Jim TAnother viewThere is a specific problem that can be checked with a volt meter, I do this every major service (spring and fall) I check coolant voltage with engine running to engine block and chassis.If you read more than the error level for the meter you have a ground problem and this is grounding through the cooling system and will damage the cooling system. Most likely the radiator

What does an exclamation point after the word thanks mean?

It is usually someone telling you what to do (i.e., a boss) in a mock-friendly way - i.e., "Please have that report on my desk by no later than nine in the morning. Thanks!" The command and the "Thanks!" is usually given in the form of an email, and is considered rhetorical - in other words, the person giving the command is not expecting a response; they just expect you to follow the orders they are giving you. "Thanks!" with an exclamation point is typically preceded by the command. The "Thanks" is supposed to denote (mock) politeness, while the exclamation point is supposed to convey firmness or strength (i.e., you better do it, "or else").
