    If the old stuff is red, you'll need to match that color or do a total flush a couple times.

    Any of the name brands are good. If you have aluminum parts (such as a intake manifold) make sure you read the bottle to verify it's compatible and will protect it.

    Thanks, I appreciate your time.

    I was wanting to purchase the antifreeze before I drained it.

    And I thought most coolant these days was premixed?
