i think i could have misread what i thought was a 1-1-1 when it was actually a 33 when i first was getting the codes but good thing is no check engine light on now so all is good i drained the radiator and i swear i have never seen anything so nasty in my life it had the color of BBQ sauce thats bout as close as i can say bout it i put straight distilled in it to flush it out. I know on the 97 and newer Cheverolet you had to use the red antifreeze supposedly due to the type of metal that was inside the radiator. Does the 95 ford use the red or the green antifreeze

boy i kinda doubt ford would use Dexcool (red coolant) in anything. however i cannot speak to the '04's.
i know my '00 focus has the standard EG green coolant.
seems to me i remember reading somewhere that Dexcool has been known to cause head gasket and water pump failure on some Ford OHC V-8's??

indeed. Well my wifes car is a 97 lumina and it has 100K on it and not had any problems with the cooling on it it has a sticker on the radiator support to only use Dexcool cause the other could damage the cooling system.Only thing i have done to it is cam/or crank sensor been a reliable car. Anybody got a clue bout minor tranny problems i have ?

yea, mixing Dexcool with regular coolant is a bad idea. DAMHIKT!
something to do with the way the addatives in the different coolants mix, and actualy speed up corosion, and remove lubrication properties.
as far as the tranny problem goes,,, i assume you have the A4OD?
check the shift sensor...might be bad.

i dun think it was the mixing part i think it was just using the green period would break down the metal inside the radiator but i have never seen coolant as nasty as what i drained out the radiator last night. Color is same as a dark colored BBQ sauce but its thin like normal it was dark last night and i shined a light in the bucket and could see it had a green color in it. So i'm running straight distilled in it for a couple days to flush that crap out of it.
