You can choose a concentrated coolant that needs to be mixed with water or a ready-mixed one that can be used immediately. Antifreeze is added to the water in your engine’s cooling system that lowers its freezing point (and raises its boiling point too). If you don’t know how antifreeze works, it’s pretty simple. It is important to inform the customer because the color of the antifreeze/coolant in the cooling system may change or has changed.Antifreeze is the hidden hero of our car’s engines.Highlight the antifreeze/coolant used on the customer's copy of the service/repair order.Direct the individual to the FCSD Chemicals and Lubricants website ( ) for more information regarding Motorcraft® Yellow Antifreeze/Coolant’s backward compatibility.
