[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 14772556, member: 20202"] nothing to be gained switching anti-freeze. All it needs to do is carry the heat, lubricate the water pump bearing and prevent corrosion. The corrosion protection between the grades is what sets them apart. Our engines have cast iron blocks and aluminum heads, the aluminum block engines may use different grade anti-freeze because less galvanic corrosion is taking place not having all that ferris metal exposure. The chemical reaction with all the various alloys and materials the coolant is exposed to makes for a very complex chemical soup which can react to one another. [U]I don't spend anytime thinking about this[/U]. Mine came with the Motorcraft gold anti-freeze and that's all I will put in it. I would just use what the factory recommends they know way more about this then we do. [/QUOTE]
