The Prestone Extended life any color is what I use.
i use the same thing. if it's not at walgreens just put a little water in there for now and watch your temp gauge till you can get to the parts house in the morning
where should my gauge be at?
Zerex G-05 and redline water wetter.

we would also accept mopar coolant. :thumbsup:


Unless you are doing a COMPLETE FLUSH AND FILL, ONLY USE Mopar coolant or Zerex G-05.

prestone
dont use anything except mopar.....because that coolant is not glycol based. Whats glycol anyone?? its sand... the aluminum inside our cooling system is coated to protect it...if you run glycol based it will eventually "sand off" the protectant and now will be more prone to leak...thats why peoples heater cores and water pumps and radiators start to leak. Mopar designed this coolant for a reason same reason gm switch to dex-cool.

prestone
Prestone what? is it a HOAT coolant? The good for all coolants aren't the best option, even if they will work ok. The Zerex is actually the Mopar coolant with a different dye color.
as long as the coolant isnt glycol based it should be ok. I would just put the factory shit back in it.
