2017
- →After refill, the level must be checked. Add enough engine coolant so that the fluid is within the proper operating range.
- →Use only engine oil licensed to the dexos1 specification, or equivalent, of the proper SAE viscosity grade. ACDelco dexos1 Synthetic Blend is recommended. If in an area of extreme cold, where the temperature falls below -20Deg.F (-29Deg.C), an SAE 0W-30 oil may be used. An oil of this viscosity grade will provide easier cold starting for the engine at extremely low temperatures.
- →Follow the Manufacturer's Instructions for the mixture ratio. Automotive windshield washer fluid that meets regional freeze protection requirements.
