Which coolant
In July of 2021 I drained, then filled with distilled water and drained several times before filling with Prestone 10 year/300K coolant. There's some debate about using orange vs green vs yellow vs gold.
Am I ok as is? What should I use on the next round?

Im assuming your talking about the gasoline versions of the Excursions, and not the diesels...

I've heard similar, but looking at that picture it shows 5y/150K vs Prestone's 10y/300K claim.
I did use the G05 in my 2000 JD tractor.
