No Prob, SvoPaul Got ahold of Scott & he Changed it. We Just Don't have the Setting to Allow us to do that Particular Change. All 3 of Us signed on in 2004. Not too Many of us Left from those Days!

Just a follow-up to my original coolant situation. We all like follow-ups so here is mine on this topic.
Yesterday my favorite local shop flushed out all the original Dexcool. In it's place now is the universal green coolant with the 5 year 150,000 miles 'guaranty'. Of course that will not apply to me but I'm feeling very pleased that the original stuff is gone. $148.12 out the door and I know it was done right..They did my Trans Am many years ago and no issues.
*** By the way, for fun, I tried the test strip on the new coolant. While the boiling/freezing indicator showed 100% as it should, the alkaline acid test showed 'REPLACE COOLANT';. Definitely expired strips or just not accurate for this particular test.

I've ever heard Ford Orange coolant related back to dexcool. I'm going to have to look into that.
