H1 owners..... While cleaning the truck, I noticed that my coolant level is 1.5 inches below the cold fill line level although the coolant temperature warning light in my instrument pannel is not illuminating.. I checked all the lines but i can't find any signs of leak.. I don't know if im loosing bec i havn't check it since i bought the truck more than a year ago..I checked the fluid.. Its clear orange and its still good to (-40 level when i tested it). Now, what should i do? Is there a specific brand of coolant that you

will recommend? Should i make a 50 - 50 mixture with water? How is the procedure of filling the surge tank? Sound stupid but i really don't know and havn't experience this before? Is it just open the cap and fill? Your advice will surely be appreciated. Thanks

YES JUST FILL IT TO THE FULL LINE

PINK ORANGE COOLANT IS LONG LIFE .GREEN IS REG ANTI-FREEZE

YES BUY OR MAKE A 50 50 MIX

BUT IF YOUR ONLY ADDING A LITER OR SO YOU CAN AD STAIGHT COOLANT
