Anti-Freeze Concentration

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1988 Pontiac 6000, 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser, 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, 1988 Chevrolet Celebrity, and 1988 Buick Century. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: On models using aluminum engines or cooling system components, refer to Owners Manual for anti-freeze requirements and recommendations. Aluminum components require a different formulation of anti-freeze to prevent corrosion.

On all cooling systems, test anti-freeze concentration using anti-freeze tester. Tester should have a temperature-compensating feature, as failing to take temperature into consideration could cause an error as large as 30°F (-1°C). Follow tester manufacturer's instructions for correct use of tester.
