1996 Chevy Corsica mileage: 138,000. My coolant light comes on sometimes. Can I just add coolant or do I have to have it flushed?

The coolant light normally comes on when you are low on coolant. Adding coolant will extinguish the light. If your cooling system has not been serviced (changing the coolant), it should be done now. A cooling system needs to be serviced every two to three years.
