rad flush, what to replace 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Steve on  Thu Sep 11 09:10 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Just replaced mine at 109 k miles last weekend. My hoses looked fine so I left them as they were.

My advice would be to make sure when you refill with coolant you ensure that the heater is turned on and you refill the coolant tank slowly to avoid air locks in the system. Also keep a close eye on the level for a couple of days just to make sure you have no leaks. For your info I believe the 850 takes about 7.2 lites and it should be 50% coolant to water.
