ck 30 hst
I own a CK30HST and I need to replace the block heater. For some reason it stopped working over the weekend. The tractor is an hour drive from my home and a long way from town when I get there. All my manuals are with the tractor and I will need to drain the anti freeze and I should replace it with new antifreeze. What I need is the capacity of the cooling system. I think it is 11 quarts but not sure. Thank you all.

You should be able to do it without loosing all the antifreeze and just have a quick top up. I don't have my CK30 manual anymore, but it has been posted here on TBN so you should be able to find it with a search.

My CK30hst is a 2004 model. My manual advises 2.1 gallons for the antifreeze.

I'd take 3 gallons, and a couple of water too. You don't want 100% coolant, you want about 60%coolant/40%H20.
