My coolant has been low for a while now and so i went down to the napa without reading this thread first. I read the first few posts but wanted to know if anything has changed as far as the concentrate being preferable over the 50/50 stuff.
I bout 8 gallons of the 50/50 solution today and if I should take it back I will. Keep in mind i have an E99 so it is the green stuff.
I want to be all the way ready for winter so let me know!
Thanks

I just found the Chevron Delo HD ELC, red, coolant at a local oil distributor supply house and had it flushed and installed. My procedure was after flushing with distilled water and draining I then filled using four gallons of concentrated coolant, then finished up with approx. four gallons of distilled water. After running around over the weekend, I had to top off again and did so with more concentrate. Test freeze point and it was at -34 deg. F, just like it's supposed to be.
This coolant is good for 750k miles and can be extended if you use a bottle of the extender.
I paid $21.99/gallon.

If yes, then unless you bought a coolant pre-charged with Supplemental Coolant Additive, you need to add the appropriate amount yourself.
I thougnh since it was an e99 I didnt have to ...

Let's have some clarification:
*Can the Chevron Delo HD ELC be used in E99's?
*Can this same coolant be used in the trucks originally using the green coolant?
*If this Delo coolant is used it does not require any SCA additives, regardless of the
truck using it. Agree?
Just curious since after reading so many posts, I am getting confused.
