The recommended coolant for a 2000 Chevy Silverado is Prestone 1 Gallon Orange Concentrate Coolant/Antifreeze. To change the coolant, start by locating the radiator under the hood. Look for a clear or black plastic container connected to the radiator, which is the coolant reservoir. It has a drain plug, a fill plug, and a dipstick. Check the coolant level and add more if needed. For a complete flush, open the drain plug and let the old coolant flow out into a bucket. You can use water to assist with flushing. Once the water runs clear, close the drain plug, refill the reservoir to the recommended level, and securely close the cap.
