Default Re: Dexcool

Stick with the old type of antifreeze Dexcool WILL eat up head gaskets I have seen it many many times I drained out it of all my newer cars After 30.000 miles you can see tell tell signs of antifreeze leak where the heads meets the block also around every hose connection you will see orange crust I rather change the green every few years after I changed to the green antifreeze I cleaned the block down and after 10.000 miles there are no tell- tell signs of a leak I have been doing this for years and never had a problem
