[QUOTE="wfooshee, post: 1309145, member: 6354"] Dex-cool is not compatible with traditional ethylene glycol coolants, which is why Warchild had to go through that extensive blow-job process: he had to get ALL of the original coolant rinsed out before pouring in the Dex-cool. Mixing them will have all kinds of sludge condensing out and clogging up the works. Some of the coolants on the shelf say they're compatible with either the green stuff or Dex-cool, but it does NOT go the other way around. Do NOT put Dex-cool in with other coolants. If you want Dex-cool, you have to have a [I]really[/I] good reason, and you have to get [I]all[/I] of the old stuff out. Warchild presented that process like "Here's how to make sure you really get rid of the old used-up coolant," but all he was really doing was changing from green to Dex-cool, so he HAD to get all the old stuff out, whether it was used-up or not.
