Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.

Can I add water to my Chrysler LeBaron radiator?

It’s not recommended you put water in your LeBaron radiator unless it’s an emergency. Under normal circumstances, use a 50/50 mix of water and coolant or a pre-mixed coolant. But, if you need to keep driving while out of coolant, using water is better than driving with an empty coolant reservoir.
