Red coolant to green coolant swap

hehe I cant control whats in my antifreeze since we have in-transit heat on our trailers....you end up with whatever was in the last guy's radiator.

but really, there are green antifreezes that say that you can mix it with any antifreeze. I use this stuff in my car just because its simple.

 

don't get hung up on the color, just make sure you read the label

 

I have been using walmart brand super tech green antifreeze in my truck for over 11 years. when I had over haul done 4 months ago the liners looked good. no pitting at all. over 1.3 mil miles.

 

X-Ray vision?

 

Seems to be a little confusion with antifreeze colors here

Red and Green, are mixable.

Orange is not compatible with either red or green.

 

You can get a filter that will work with the red ELC? Truck we bought 2 years ago has red in it, no filter, I asked our NAPA store if its possible to add a filter that would be compatible, he called someone with NAPA and their word was no. What kind, number of filter?

 

Make sure you get your coolant tested when you do a PM. That's the only way to be sure the additive package is still working.

 

on a Cummins get a filter as was previously stated that has NO Units of additive. It is just a plain filter.

 

Right! The fleetguard water filter with NO additives for the ISX is a WF2127. The others have SCA additives built in.

 

cummins reccommends a coolant the meets the following specifications - ASTM D4985 Which has LESS THAN 0.10% SILICATE, hope this helps
