What is the number of gallons capacity of the radiator from a 1985 Pontiac Firebird with a 3.1 liter V-6 ?
The Inter Webs indicate 23.5 quarts, 5.875 gal.
Seems like a lot... I'd suspect that the radiator holds about 2.5 gal and the rest of the car about 2.5+ gal.
Don't think I've ever measured that but you also have hoses and heater core besides the engine.
A second search found this:
AllData shows 12.5 W AC, 12.2 W/O AC. BUT that is for the 2.6 as the
3.1 wasn't in the Firebird as OEM until 1990. However it used the same amount of coolant in the engine itself.MotorsForum website is not affiliated with any of the manufacturers or service providers discussed here. All logos and trade names are the property of their respective owners.
