• Q: How to replace the front coolant reservoir on 2008 Chevrolet Equinox?

  A: The GE-47716 Vac N Fill Coolant Refill Tool (GE-47716) helps drain engine coolant before a coolant reservoir replacement. Disassemble the coolant reservoir replacement process by removing the hose clamp from the inlet then disconnecting the hose followed by removing bolted coolant reservoir fasteners. Access the heater outlet hose by lifting the coolant reservoir to reach it. Remove both the hose clamp and the outlet hose before taking out the coolant reservoir from the vehicle. Start heater outlet hose installation by connecting it to the coolant reservoir before securely replacing the coolant reservoir into the vehicle's position. Secure the coolant reservoir bolts with torque at 9 N.m (80 lb in). Affix the coolant reservoir inlet hose after connecting it using the inlet hose clamp. When adding engine coolant utilize the GE-47716 Vac N Fill Coolant Refill Tool (GE-47716).
