Re: Which coolant?

Sorry to raise a ruckus guys, I wasn't trying to. I didn't know to search for "gooch" and I wont do that. Who has time these days to be buried in facts when we kill ourselves all day working. I just remember hearing about the two colored anti-freezes and thought maybe there was a definate color for certain years. It sounds like theres so many opinions with no definate that I'll probably just go to Wall-Mart and buy some Prestone 2. Actually, thanks SmokeyWren, Zerex G-05 it is. That was easy!

Ok I'll bite, personally I would rather be "buried in facts" than float on falsehoods. If you don't know how to or are unwilling to use the search feature then you will miss out on a huge volume of forum information on many topics, your loss. Go ahead and run the Ford Gold or G-O5. I run the Gold myself but supplement it to the spec that it should be but doesn't meet. Next time I change I won't use it. It just isn't the best choice, but is good enough, a coolant for our trucks. It was an overall compromise choice by Ford to be a middle of the road selection for both gasoline and diesels. Very convenient for them and their supply and manufacture needs. There are better coolants out there for PSD's, longer lasting and easier on water pumps. Good luck, 106
