pints low.)
4. If the fluid level is where it should
be, push the dipstick back

Engine Coolant
The following explains your cooling
system and how to add coolant when it
is low. If you have a problem with
engine overheating,
see the Index under
Engine Overheating.
The proper coolant for your Chevrolet
will:
Give freezing protection down to
Give boiling protection up to 262°F
Protect against rust and corrosion.
Help keep the proper engine

should.
What to Use: Use a mixture of one-half
clean water (preferably distilled) and
one-half antifreeze that meets "GM
Specification 1825-M," which won't
damage aluminum parts.
You can also
use a recycled coolant conforming to
GM Specification 1825-M with a
complete coolant flush and refill.
If you
use this mixture, you don't need to add
anything else.
If you have a 2.2L LA engine, your
engine coolant system will have a
coolant recovery
tank. If you have a
3.1L V6 engine, your engine coolant
system will have a coolant surge
tank.
There are important differences between
these two cooling systems. Read this section carefully.
