New Holland 1215 Coolant FAQs

How much coolant does a New Holland 1215 take?

The New Holland 1215 takes 4.8 gal | 18.2 L of coolant. That is above the average compact tractor benchmark, so buy enough coolant before starting instead of relying on one spare jug.

Is 4.8 gal | 18.2 L a lot of coolant for a New Holland 1215?

Yes. For this tractor category, 4.8 gal | 18.2 L is above average. This is the sort of refill where you want all coolant on hand before draining, because stopping halfway through the job is annoying and messy.

How many coolant jugs do I need for a New Holland 1215?

This is a manageable refill amount. A 4.8 gal | 18.2 L system needs about 5 one-gallon containers if you are using premixed coolant. If using concentrate at a 50/50 mix, plan on about 2.4 gal of concentrate and 2.4 gal of distilled water. In metric terms, that is roughly 4 x 5 L containers for a full premix refill.

What coolant should I use in a New Holland 1215?

The listed coolant is 50/50 ethylene glycol-based coolant. Ethylene glycol tells you the base coolant, but the additive package still matters on diesel engines, so match the manual or an approved equivalent. The listed mix is 50/50 antifreeze and water, so do not run straight water except as a short emergency move.

How much concentrate and water does a New Holland 1215 need?

With the listed 50/50 antifreeze and water mix, a full 4.8 gal | 18.2 L refill works out to about 2.4 gal of antifreeze concentrate and 2.4 gal of distilled water. If using premix, do not add extra water unless the product label says to.

Can I use a different radiator cap on a New Holland 1215?

The listed cap pressure is 7 psi | 48 kPa. That is a lower-pressure cap, so do not upgrade it to a higher-pressure cap just because it sounds stronger. Too much cap pressure can stress hoses, radiator seams and older seals.

Official information note

Mistakes do happen. Coolant specs can change by year, engine, market, radiator option and coolant chemistry. Check the operator manual, parts book and official newholland.com website before draining, flushing or refilling the cooling system.
