Yup!

Contains the same sodium dex-cool does, it is just yellow colored. same with the advance auto brand, both contain sodium die-something. and another form of sodium. I checked it with an old bottle of prestone on the shelf in the back, only etheline gylcol and dietheline gylcol in the old bottle(yes my spelling sucks), try and find original prestone, or other green anti-freeze.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong on this, but it doesnt look that way, the dex-cool ingedients are the same as this new yellow prestone crap.

hmmmmm, ill have to remember that when it comes filling/flushing time what ever comes first lol.

GM came up with dex-cool. Why would anyone want to run salt-water through their engine to cool it?

Way to go Mr. Goodwrench :thumbup: ya fat-head retard :spank: .

Wonder why mom's water pump rusted out on the buick.

Hahaha moochie..."fat head retard"...very nice.

I think I would stick with the dex-cool though, If I had a car that required it of course....

 

[k2mooch]

. . .If I had a car that required it of course....

That's kinda masochistic of the car though, don't ya think?

I know, big words, sorry. Look it up. Just goofing off.

I don't know how it is elsewhere, but ALL (except the actual Dexcool) of the antifreeze out this way recently is 'compatable" with ANY other antifreeze. You can't find the regular ethylene glycol(green) stuff anymore.

 

[Ghetto Jet]

ethylene glycol is going to be the next R-12.

 

[87442lover]

So I am right. Take away the fancy words and what do you get, SALT! Thats right salt running through your engine block, eating away at every part it comes in contact with.

So yeah they are all compatible because it's Dex-Death.

masochist

n : someone who obtains pleasure from receiving punishment [ant: sadist]


Like the masochistic engine that 'requires' to be destroyed from the inside out? Good thinking GM :thumbup: Way to keep revenue coming into your repair shops. What a bunch of brilliant (insert dirty word here)'s. :spank: :spank:

Moochie...Have you been saving that word just for a time like this? Used it, sounded smart...back to the drawing board.

That's better than being a narcissistic necrophiliac !.

Know what I mean? :drunk:

 

[pmeisel]

Ok, I am a little out of touch. Why is ethylene glycol disappearing and what do you like or dislike about the replacements?

 

[k2mooch]

Ethylene glycol is toxic to living things. It's probably being phased out for health reasons moreso than mechanical. (like everything else these days)

I don't like the fact that its replacement contains organic acid which is much more damaging to metal components inside a car (except aluminum). Dex - Cool

Green = Good for car, bad for environment.
Red = Bad for car, no bad for environment.

It's a simple dilemma caused by idiots dumping the Green in their back yards instead of recycling it. Now we have to be consious of the environment and rust our engines form the inside out.

Of course this is pretty exaggerated, but it's along the same lines.





MoocH

 

[87442lover]

No one is an "idiot" for dumping the green stuff in the yard. You know in some areas there arent any places that recycle the stuff. Like I dont know... where I live. It is easier to let it run down the drain than to pay someone to have it collected.

So dont blame me, blame however is making it hard to dispose of and/or recycle.

 

[Ghetto Jet]

Our dog was poisoned because the guy across the street poured his out onto the road, stupid * hole should have just poured it out in his stone driveway.

I dump mine in the stones that extend a few feet past where our driveway stops and then spray the area with the hose just incase any animals want to get into it.

 

[dawg]

sodium is NOT SALT!!!!
sodium chloride is.
sodium in its pure form is explosive in water.
sodium he is referring to is a type of lubrcant.
actually it breaks the water tension.

 

[87442lover]

And still casues corosion.

And sodium does not explode when it comes in contact with water, it does catch fire however.

 

[dawg]

ok so I must have been on crack when we used to throw chunks of it in the water off the ship I was on in the navy?

 

[87442lover]

Heh, I got to see that.
