Maintenance ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION Use Motorcraft௡ SAE 5W-50 full synthetic or an equivalent SAE 5W-50 full synthetic oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C931-B. Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, cleaners or other engine treatments. They are unnecessary and could lead to engine damage that is not covered by Ford warranty. Change your engine oil and filter according to the appropriate schedule listed in the scheduled maintenance information. ENGINE AND INTERCOOLER COOLANT The concentration and level of coolant should be checked at the mileage intervals listed in the scheduled maintenance information. The coolant concentration should be maintained at 50/50 coolant and water, which equates to a freeze point of -34°F (-36°C) . Coolant concentration testing is possible with a hydrometer or antifreeze tester (such as the Rotunda Battery and Antifreeze Tester, 0014-R1060). The level of coolant should be maintained at the "cold fill range" level in the coolant reservoir. If the level falls below, add coolant per the instructions in the Adding coolant section. Your vehicle was factory-filled with a 50/50 coolant and water concentration. If the concentration of coolant falls below 40% or above 60%, the engine parts could become damaged or not work properly. A 50/50 mixture of coolant and water provides the following: • freeze protection down to -34°F (-36°C). • boiling protection up to 265°F (129°C). • protection against rust and other forms of corrosion. • an accurate temperature readout from the engine coolant gauge. 23 2011 05+ Mustang (197) Supplement, 1st Printing USA (fus)

ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION
Use Motorcraft
±
SAE 5W-50 full synthetic or an equivalent SAE 5W-50
full synthetic oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C931-B.
Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, cleaners or other engine
treatments. They are unnecessary and could lead to engine damage that
is not covered by Ford warranty.
Change your engine oil and filter according to the appropriate schedule
listed in the
scheduled maintenance information.
ENGINE AND INTERCOOLER COOLANT
The concentration and level of coolant should be checked at the mileage
intervals listed in the
scheduled maintenance information.
The coolant
concentration should be maintained at 50/50 coolant and water, which
equates to a freeze point of -34°F (-36°C) . Coolant concentration testing
is possible with a hydrometer or antifreeze tester (such as the Rotunda
Battery and Antifreeze Tester, 0014–R1060). The level of coolant should
be maintained at the “cold fill range” level in the coolant reservoir. If the
level falls below, add coolant per the instructions in the
Adding coolant
section.
Your vehicle was factory-filled with a 50/50 coolant and water
concentration. If the concentration of coolant falls below 40% or above
60%, the engine parts could become damaged or not work properly.
A
50/50 mixture of coolant and water provides the following:
•
freeze protection down to -34°F (-36°C).
•
boiling protection up to 265°F (129°C).
•
protection against rust and other forms of corrosion.
•
an accurate temperature readout from the engine coolant
gauge.
