Default Cold min level BFXR6 n/a

Should I add a bit of demineralised water to the tank just to get the level up to cold max? When engine is cold it’s on the cold min level. Should I worry? Thanks BF XR6 n/a

Where is in when engine is at operating temp?


I keep my cold level right in the middle of the two and when hot, it is just above the max line.

I think so mate. As long as it is between the two marks when cold it should be sweet. I usually check every week or so to make sure the cold level is still the same.

Thanks- I do usually check it regularly although not for a while and whilst it’s on the cold min level or very very slightly under its nowhere near the hot max line when running at normal temp and idling..
