Getting ready to install my DIESELSITE Coolant Filter
 

so im getting ready to install and i was wondering on the refill of coolant.. Do i put in 3 or 4 gal of coolant and top off with water?? my truck is a 05 f350.. anyone help me out.. thanks!!:humm:

You shouldn't use that much coolant!? Just pinch the coolant lines off with vice-grips when you're doing the install, you're only going to lose a tiny bit.

well.. im gonna flush it first.. i guess i should of said that..haha. my bad...

Just get the pre mix and go otherwise it's 50/50 dunno how many gallons your system holds

28.5 qt

6.0L Coolant Flush Procedure

Here is what you do.... (I do it every 50,000 miles just because it is fun to do and I am anal about my maintenance).

1) Buy 4 gallons of Ford Premium Gold coolant at dealer

2) Buy 15 gallons of distilled water at local grocery store.

3) Drop lower radiator hose until empty.

4) Reconnect hose and add distilled water to degas bottle until full.

5) Drive truck until temp gauge goes to normal and thermostat opens.

6) Repeat steps #3 through #5 no less than 4 or 5 times (depends on distilled water amount used) - I can't remember?

7) You now have 100% distilled water in your system.

8) Drop lower hose 1 last time, drain and reconnect.

9) Look in manual for your system capacity and for a 50/50% refill of coolant just add the coolant straight into your degas bottle up to the amount that equals a 50/50% concentration.

10) Start motor and add distilled water to bring system level to the MIN mark on degas bottle.

11) Drive truck around to open thermostat and let cool 1 or twice to purge any air. May need to add more distilled water (don't add coolant)... but when done you have flushed your entire system and have a perfect 50/50% concentration of coolant and distilled water!!!!

well justs got done with the install... it was fun!!! cant wait till next time!!!:c:
