CAUTION • Type 1, ethylene glycol (green) and Type 2, propylene glycol (purple), should never be mixed due to their difference in toxic properties. Failure to comply may result in damage to equipment. • Using antifreeze without mixing it with water can cause high operating temperatures, blockage of cooling system passages, and damage to water pump seals. NOTE • Type 1 antifreeze is an ethylene glycol based coolant, green in color, and is the only authorized antifreeze for military vehicles. Type 1 can be added to factory-filled pink coolant. When it becomes necessary to flush factory coolant, Type 1, ethylene glycol, will be used. When mixing Type 1 antifreeze with water, distilled water is recommended. Tap water should only be used in emergency situations. • Capacity of cooling system is 32 quarts (30.3 liters). 12. Fill cooling system (WP 0076 00). 13.
