8/1/09 - Using a funnel carefully pour 1 Gallon of Antifreeze & 1 Gallon of Distilled water into radiator reservoir on passenger side of engine compartment by the firewall. It is make of semi-clear plastic, and has a black cap on it. Remove the upper radiator hose on the passenger side and carefully pour 1 Gallon of Antifreeze and 1 Gallon of Distilled water into it using a funnel. The reason you fill it from both places is that the thermostat does not allow water into the radiator or all of the engine block. Be sure to check the temperature and coolant level after driving the vehicle. Add coolant to the radiator reservoir as needed.

Yes, but you wouldn't want to do that, 90 is renix, and it has the older style radiator with the reservoir to fill it, where as your 98 has a filler cap, which eliminates air bubbles that occur from the reservoir.
