Relatively new to me 1986 60 (got her 9 months ago). I figured in was time to drain and fill the cooling system with fresh coolant. I was expecting green but somewhere along the way before I got her, red coolant was put in.
So now, the question is do I go back to green or stay red? I don’t know if the red is or Is not DexCool. I was thinking of completely flushing the system and replacing with green but know that can create precipitates that can clog the radiator and heater cores.
I certainly don’t mind the work and mess of flushing the system if that puts the truck in a better place.
What do ya’ll think is best?
