i was going to pick some of that orange stuff up the
other day and the sales person told me it would not be
a good idea to mix the orange with other coolants. he
gave no indication as to why this was, but i went with
what i had been using just the same, some green stuff
supposedly animal\environment friendly, phosphate
free...one guy told me that no coolant is phosphate
free and that it pisses him off that companys put that
on the labels...i have no idea so i kept my mouth shut
and bought some that "claims" to be free of
phosphates, just my experience for what it is worth,
or not....
