Then to confuse matters, the sticker on the reservoir has a lil picture with orange coolant with a big ol' "X" over it like they're sayin it's bad to use orange. When I swapped the radiator, my detective eye noticed there was a orange kinda filmy slimy rusty slop all up in the surfaces of the hoses. and that we need to "keep an eye on it." I'm thinkin the previous owner might a used some nasty head gasket sealer or done flood rusted the whole vehicle out and swapped a new engine into it. and that they didn't understand why that is. I think they said they put yellow stuff in it) but they said "now after the coolant flush, it's surprisingly back to orange, again, anyhow.".
#Ford orange coolant dex cool professional
The last time coolant was put in it, a professional did it, but afterwards they were sayin all this confusing stuff to me about how they didn't expect it to be orange (that they didn't use orange stuff. and I heard if you put the wrong kind of coolant in there, it's likely to cause deadly consequences. Cuz I dont even know what kind is in there right now. now I'm head scratchin' on what type o coolant to put back in it. there outta be a way to remove those hoses without it 'splodin all over damn near blinded myself. ( By the way, nobody told me I was gone get transmission fluid all over the dang place. but half the old stuff is still sittin in the engine behind the thermostat (right?). I drained the old radiator slop out like your'e supposed to. Just slapped a new radiator in my trusty steed - a ford e150 1998 with a 5.4 in it.
