Re: [DML] Coolant Level - Winter Seepage

["Piszar" <piszar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Robert, do not mix orange coolant with traditional green coolant, 
regardless of what the bottle says.  GM Engineering ran tests on 
mixing them with poor results.

As a side note, I would recommend sticking with green coolant.  It is 
what your system was designed for.  In addition, when orange coolant 
gets too hot it has a tendancy to gel, which plugs water passages and 
fries water pumps.  A well-maintained car should never overheat, but 
things happen and I would not want that in my cooling system if I ran 
hot for some reason.
