Coolant change
« on: July 29, 2011, 11:05:11 PM »
Well, it is time to change the coolant on my 2003 Monterey with the Cummins ISC 350.  I plan to use the Fleetguard ES Complete OAT.  This is the red coolant and does not require adding DCA. Has anyone used this, and if so did you flush with just water before filling with the new coolant?   Also, I am trying to find out how many gallons to buy, and have not been able to find it anywhere. Anyone that knows the capacity would sure help.
Thanks,
Jim

Jim,

I have the Cummins 370 in my 03' Contessa, but the cooling system may be the same.  I had the coolant drained, flushed and refilled with CAT ELC.  The invoice shows 14 gallons  plus a coolant spin on filter to replace the Cummins WF filter.

Good  luck,

Paul
