Engine Coolant Type

Conventional Coolant: Conventional coolant (antifreeze) is green or blue-green. GM 6038M or equivalent, low silicate antifreeze mixture, 50/50 antifreeze/water mixture, not to exceed 60/40.

Important Do not mix conventional coolant and ELC. ELC (Extended Life Coolant): ELC is red. Units containing ELC have an ELC nameplate on the expansion tank. Use a 50/50 concentration of any of the following equivalents: Texaco ELC (7997, 7998, 16445, 16447), Havoline Dex-Cool® (7994, 7995), Havoline XLC for Europe (30379, 33013), Shell Dexcool® (94040), Shell Rotella (94041), Saturn/General Motors Dex-Cool®, Caterpillar ELC, Detroit Diesel POWERCOOL® Plus
    Notice
  • System Contamination
  • Do not add GREEN or BLUE-GREEN conventional coolant to cooling systems using RED Extended Life Coolant, except in an emergency. If conventional coolant is added to Extended Life Coolant, the coolant must be changed after 2 years instead of 5 years.
    Notice
  • Equipment Damage
  • Do not use high silicate automobile antifreeze.
