  • Use: Normal

Additional Notes

  • The Ford Taunus 26M with the 2.6-liter engine in the P7b body carries a cooling system capacity of 8 liters, which represents the total volume of the cooling circuit including the radiator, engine block passages, and heater core.
  • An 8-liter coolant capacity places the 2.6-liter P7b in a mid-range fill volume typical of inline six-cylinder engines of the late 1960s and early 1970s, where larger displacement engines required greater thermal management than smaller four-cylinder counterparts.
  • The single capacity figure of 8 liters applies under normal use conditions, meaning no separate severe-duty or first-fill distinction is specified for the 1969-1971 P7b cooling system.
