Title : CV Coolant Fill Level

01/03/2018 ‐ Initial Article Release.
Description
CV vehicles will arrive at their destinations with some coolant in the lower chambers of the surge tank and with the upper chambers filled to
the top of the tank (reference Figure 1 below).This is correct but different from other Navistar
vehicles which arrive at their destinations with
coolant levels between cold min and cold max.
• CV vehicles will appear to be “over‐filled” with coolant when they leave the Navistar assembly facility.
• These vehicles typically have up to 1.4 L of air trapped in the engine after completing the on‐line coolant evac/fill procedure.
• Coolant is added to the lower chambers of the surge tank and upper chambers are topped off above the fill line to the top of the bottle
per the GM and Navistar recommended procedure.
• As the vehicles are used in the field, the air is gradually released from the engine and displaced by coolant from the surge tank.
• The recommended fill procedure ensures that the total vehicle coolant levels will remain high enough to avoid a low coolant condition as
the trapped air is displaced.

DIAGNOSTIC:
#
Decision
Yes: Coolant level is correct; no repair is required
Observe coolant level in the surge tank.
Is the coolant level at or above the cold max
line?
No: Fill the coolant reservoir as outlined in the CV
Technician Manual 0001111853
Figure 1 ‐ Proper coolant level when leaving the plant
Proper fill with upper chamber full to top of tank (brim full) and
residual coolant in lower chamber
Repair Step(s)
1. None required if coolant level in surge tank is at or above cold max. Upper surge tank chambers filled above cold max and as high as the
top of the tank and coolant remaining in lower chambers are normal for these vehicles and coolant should not be removed from them.
2. Coolant levels below cold min require the coolant fill service procedure described in the CV Technician Manual 0001111853.
3. Coolant levels observed between cold min and cold max should be topped off to top of tank unless the vehicle is known to have
completed multiple (three or more) thermal cycles with engine coolant temps exceeding 212°F (100°C) and then cooling to 70°F (21°C)
during each cycle.
