How many quarts of Fuild in Radiator?, We really need a sticky on this stuff Options

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

I've bought some water wetter and I want to make sure I put the right amount in the Celica. I'll keep an eye on my temp gauge to see how it messures after I put this stuff in.

We really should have a sticky with info like oil capacity, radiator, steering fluid, and all that other stuff. If I can find the info, I'll try to start one.

isnt it a half gallon coolant and a half gallon water?

That sounds way to easy. I should really know this too, I just changed my radiator. I just filled it though, I didn't watch to see exactly how much I was using.

ive used a whole gallon of coolant in mines and it over flowed....ended up draining some coolant to add some water......i'd say about a gallon capacity

[azian_advanced]

aren't they in the car manual?
