Yet another coolant question.....sorry Posted by GFW3pedals [Email] (#405) [Profile/Gallery] (more from GFW3pedals) on Wed, 4 Jan 2012 08:59:11 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I've spent a good amount of time reading the many posts regarding coolant types and applicable years etc. My situation is this: I plan on changing the thermostat & temp sensor , and will most likely try a coolant change while I'm at it. However, the car has a transplanted engine from previous owner/shop and was filled with the green stuff, so I don't know what coolant type is in it other than green. How do I know what green stuff this is ? Is all green stuff Prestone? Should I fill with blue stuff? Can I only get the blue stuff from Eeuroparts/dealer/Mercedes? Is the green really all that bad for a car with 145K on it and no leaks? I have already topped up with Prestone when it was low at one point from a loose hose with no color changes from the potential mixing of unknown types. Car is 2000 lpt - thanks all.
