Is dexcool (orange) anti-freeze ok to use in a 1996 Sable/Taurus? If, not what should I use? Green came out.


Thanks.

Check the owners manualfor specification.May need a flush to restore to correct spec.

I had my 97 radiator rotted out and that is what the radiator shop put back in it.

Dexcool is not made for use in your cooling system and will actually cause corrosion and even cause engine damage. Use good old green, and if you live in a cold climate don't ever use straight anti-freeze because it will freeze faster than a 50/50 mix.
