Coolant

I just flushed my coolant system and installed zerex G-05 antifreeze, my question, will I still have to add a conditioner.
I have a 1999 F250 super duty 7.3 diesel.

Not required with the Gold (mine came from the factory with it), but you should still check it from time to time with the strips.

Do yourself a favor. Check the new coolant you just put in with a test strip. I've read where others have flushed and refilled with the gold coolant (like the Zerex G05 stuff) and fresh out of the bottle the test strip showed the level didn't meet factory specs, and a bottle or recharge stuff was needed.

Even if yours if fine, you'll have peace of mind!
