Coolant Evans vs Gold

What are other people running. I know there is Evans which does not require to be changed or messed with for 500,000 miles. I also know that Ford Gold will go for 100,000 miles. Evans is more expensive, but if you don't have to do anything to it I believe that you will come out ahead versus four regular changes of the Gold.

Yes I want to drive my X for a long time....that is part of the reason I bought a diesel...

Any experiences with either.

Re: Coolant Evans vs Gold

Personaly, I would not trust my coolant to last 500k or even 100k, but that's me. I just replaced my gold coolant with gold at 3years/30k even though it was not needed.

I really do want my diesel motor to last a very long time. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
