[QUOTE="SID297, post: 14774702, member: 8858"] I have seen many modular engines with sludged up cooling systems from the Ford Gold coolant (Green too but not as bad). Silicates are an old technology that have been surpassed by modern additive packages. Since you mentioned Ford engineers, take a look at their newest recommendation. It's the new Motorcraft Orange coolant. It is essentially a less robust version of the Shell coolants I recommended. The reason I prefer the Shell (or any number of other quality ELCs) is due to the fact that for most people they never have to change the coolant again. It's good for 600,000 miles. However, it you're more comfortable with a Ford product you should use the new Orange formulation. I would choose it over the Gold stuff any day of the week. You're not alone. Most people don't have a clue about how any of the additives work and their pros and cons. [/QUOTE]
