Yes - proceed to Step 2. (2). No - this article does not apply. Refer to Powertrain Controls/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) Manual or Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-03C for normal diagnostics. 2. Visually inspect the engine coolant for contamination. Is the engine coolant contaminated? Note: Engine coolant system flushing is not required during coolant pump removal and installation. During normal vehicle operation, Motorcraft® Orange Prediluted Antifreeze/Coolant may change color from orange to pink or light red. As long as the engine coolant is clear and uncontaminated, this color change does not indicate the engine coolant has degraded nor does it require the engine coolant to be drained and replaced or the cooling system to be flushed.
