If you need
more coolant, add the proper DEX-COOL@
coolant mixture at the surge tank, but only when the
engine .is cool.
I A CAUTION:
You can be burned if you spill coolant on hot
engine parts. Coolant contains ethylene glycol,
and it will burn if the engine parts
are hot
enough. Don’t spill coolant
on a hot engine.
When replacing the pressure cap, make sure it is tight.
I NOTICE:
~~~~~~~~~~ ~
The surge tank cap is a 15 psi (105 kPa)
pressure-type cap and must be tightly installed
to
prevent coolant loss and possible engine damage
from overheating. Be sure the arrows
on the cap
line up.
If the surge tank pressure cap needs to be replaced, a
General Motors cap is recommended.
Engine coolant temperature
is controlled by a thermostat
in
the engine coolant system. The thermostat stops the
flow of coolant through the radiator until the coolant
reaches a preset temperature.
If your thermostat needs to be replaced, a General
Motors thermostat
is recommended.
