What is the best coolant/antifreeze ?
#11
Yeah, because I changed mine when I got my hoe (at a little over 100k). Knocking on wood, but now I have 170k on it and haven't had any problems with leaks or anything else like that. I even took off a bolt from the block (the one used to drain the fluid) and didn't notice any corrosion or build-up inside the block. I thought that the dex-cool stuff was suppose to be the extended interval antifreeze that would last up to 100k. So is the new dex-cool okay now or is it the same formula? Should it be avoided?

My local supplier no longer stocks the green . I was recommended a coolant specially formulated to help the longevity of aluminium parts, its red (not orange) and a local mechanic who specialises in American cars uses it in all his Chevys.
Thanks for the Dex-Cool info.
