mixing orange and green will leave you with a brownish pudding-like
substance throughout the entire cooling system. BAD NEWS!

I'll get pictures the next time some dufus comes in to work with a plugged
radiator b/c of that :)

Prestone Long-Life is the DEX-COOL approved orange coolant. Are you sure you
want to put that in your conventional coolant system?? I'm not 100% sure,
but I think that if you run the "orange stuff" in a "green stuff" system,
you might have some problems. Why would you want to switch anyway? Just be
safe and use the conventional coolant and distilled water. HTH,

Need to flush my rad. Got Prestone long life. It recomends a 70-30 mix.
Should I go that high?
