That is something I must admit to letting slip by on our older cars, Lee. Thanks for the reminder. I have typically been a stickler for changing oil and oil filter at regular intervals. But changing engine coolant on a regular basis is something I must make a point of doing. My wife's car uses a pink coloured coolant only available from the dealer which cannot be mixed with water nor other type coolants. Its like DexCool that way. Only without the problems so long as directions are followed.
I have thought about using this in my '57 and recommend it to my youngest son for his Camaro, as well. Dealer has no recommended periodicity for engine coolant change (which I find rather strange). Manufacturer of this engine coolant says change it every 100,000 miles or every 15 years, whichever comes first. But I am concerned about flushing contaminants out of the cooling system, so it may be better to stay with the 'green' stuff and change it every few years. Still debating which way to go on that.
Thanks,
Harry
