Anti ferrze, eh? ;-)

I have the orange stuff from Prestone in my '88, and it always stinks
like anti-freeze, since it "seeps" out from between hoses and fittings,
etc.  I've been told that this is due to molecule size - don't know if
this is true or not.

My Westy has VW blue coolant, and it seems quite happy (me, too).  I'd
pay the couple extra bux and go blue next time.

Listies:

Took a few months off from the list, needed a break but now back and
it's nice to see some of the same names coming up on my screen once
again....

Radiator coolant, Prestone has some phosphate free orange stuff. What's
the opinions of you folks out there.
