The Orange Dexcool Stuff is the worst thing that can be put into an engine. It is worse than straight tap water.

Over time it begins to gel in the system. It evetually plugs every opening it goes through. Great if you have a leak. Bad if you want to keep you vehcle running. If you do use it you should flush your system every six months. Most Manufacturers are moving away from Dexcool because of it's plroblems.

What "withidle" is talking about is silicates. The only thing old is his information. Most green stuff is now silicate free. It is only the very cheap stuff that still has the silicates in it. It will also say it on the label.
