Subject:Re: question to Ken Wilford about antifreeze

My questions are:

1)  If Ken, in fact, had cheap Wally-mart putrid green anti-freeze in the engine
at the time his heads blew, did that cause the heads or gaskets to blow?

OR...

2)  Was it the fact that his Van had 166k miles on the original heads and
gaskets?

Hmmm...  Green may not mean GO in this case, but it may be totally irrelevant
too, given the miles the original heads had...
