Case IH 745 XL Extra Coolant Notes
| Engine horsepower | 72 hp | 53.7 kW |
|---|---|
| Engine displacement | 3.9 L | 239 cu in |
| Capacity note | For the Case IH 745 XL, the listed cooling system capacity is 12.5 gal | 47.3 L. Buy slightly more coolant than the exact capacity so you have enough for topping off after air burps out. |
| Mixture note | 50/50 antifreeze and water. |
| Radiator cap note | The radiator cap pressure listed for the Case IH 745 XL is 13.1 psi | 90 kPa. Do not replace it with a random cap unless the pressure rating matches. |
| Refill note | Refill slowly, run the tractor until warm with the heater circuit open if fitted, let it cool, then recheck the coolant level. Never remove a hot radiator cap under pressure. |
Case IH 745 XL Coolant FAQs
How much coolant does a Case IH 745 XL take?
The Case IH 745 XL takes 12.5 gal | 47.3 L of coolant. That is well above the normal utility tractor benchmark shown here, so treat it as a full cooling-system service job, not a quick top-up.
Is 12.5 gal | 47.3 L a lot of coolant for a Case IH 745 XL?
Yes. For this tractor category, 12.5 gal | 47.3 L is well above normal. 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 Case IH 745 XL?
Do not underestimate this refill. A 12.5 gal | 47.3 L system needs about 13 one-gallon containers if you are using premixed coolant. If using concentrate at a 50/50 mix, plan on about 6.2 gal of concentrate and 6.2 gal of distilled water. In metric terms, that is roughly 10 x 5 L containers for a full premix refill.
Can I mix coolant types in a Case IH 745 XL?
Because the listed coolant is extended-life OAT coolant, the clean move is to stay with the same approved chemistry. Do not casually mix it with old green conventional coolant; if the old coolant type is unknown, flush first or confirm what is already in the system. 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 Case IH 745 XL need?
With the listed 50/50 antifreeze and water mix, a full 12.5 gal | 47.3 L refill works out to about 6.2 gal of antifreeze concentrate and 6.2 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 Case IH 745 XL?
The listed cap pressure is 13.1 psi | 90 kPa. That higher-pressure cap helps raise the boiling point, but only if the radiator neck, hoses and overflow path are in good shape. A weak cap or damaged seat can still cause coolant loss.
Mistakes do happen. Coolant specs can change by year, engine, market, radiator option and coolant chemistry. Check the operator manual, parts book and official caseih.com website before draining, flushing or refilling the cooling system.
