“How do I put coolant in my car?”
Adding coolant to your car is a pretty simple and easy process that anyone can do! Here’s a step by step guide on how to do it:
First you’ll want to purchase some coolant. You can do this at any auto parts store. Be sure to get the right type of coolant for your car – there are usually different kinds depending on the make and model of the car. Once you have the coolant open the hood of your car and locate the coolant reservoir. The reservoir is usually a white plastic container and will have a fill line marked on it.
Next you’ll want to use a funnel to pour the coolant into the reservoir. Be careful not to overfill it – you should stop pouring when the coolant reaches the fill line. Once you’ve added the coolant replace the cap on the reservoir and close the hood of your car.
That’s it! You’ve successfully added coolant to your car.
