Engine Overheating
You
will find a coolant temperature gage on
your
vehicle’s instrument panel.
You
may also find a low
coolant warning light on your vehicle’s instrument panel
(5.7L
V8
Engine).
If
Steam
Is
Coming
From
Your Engine
Steam from an overheated engine can burn you
badly, even if you just open the hood. Stay away
from the engine
if
you see or hear steam coming
from it. Just turn
it
off
and get everyone away
from the vehicle until
it
cools down. Wait until
there is no sign of steam or coolant before you
open the hood.
If
you keep driving when your engine is
overheated, the liquids in
it
can catch fire. You or
others could be badly burned. Stop your engine
if
it overheats, and get out of the vehicle until the
engine is cool.
NOTICE:
If
your engine catches fire because you keep
driving
with
no coolant, your vehicle can be
badly damaged. The costly repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
