2、er in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers an updated procedure for evaluat-ing corrosion protection and performance of an engine coolantin passenger car,light truck
3、 service that closely imitates currentvehicle and engine manufacturers practices.NOTE1Coolant evaluation in vehicle service may require consider-able time and expense;therefore,the product should be pretested in thelaboratory for general acceptability.Typical tests vary from small,closelycontrolled
4、tests,to large tests where close control is not always practical.The most often referenced protocols for laboratory testing are defined inSpecifications D3306,D7714,and D7715.1.2 The units quoted in this practice are to be regarded asstandard.The values given in parentheses are approximateequivalent
