Revisiting the antifreeze options
Hi guys-
Back when I had my 6.0 one of the problems in that truck was the Ford Gold coolant and when I flushed out my system I went to the CAT ELC coolant and none of us had any further issues.
So I was doing some basic maintenance on my '16 6.7 yesterday and noticed that the coolant level in the degas bottle was nearing the minimum level and was wondering if the CAT coolant is compatible. I tried looking online and I couldn't find anything that said it specifically met the Ford requirements other than it said that it met all manufacturers requirement. It is a red color and is an extended life coolant but I'm not sure..
we run it in all our other Diesel engines from Mack trucks to CAT equipment without any issues and we keep it in the shop so that is why I was asking...
Anyone have any idea if its compatible?
Thanks
