Coolant type by color?
Helping out a buddy do a coolant flush on his 05 6.0. Pulled a sample and let it sit overnight. Looks clear but is a strange color. Any idea what brand/type it might be? ELC? He has no history pre purchase so I was just curious what it might be. If it's already ELC, we will just add the coolant filter.

When I did my coolant flush last year I used a product by Peak ELC-1 called "Final Charge" that can be found at Oreilly's Auto Parts. it's similar in that color you have there. An Orange/Red. Like the previous poster mentioned. there is not necessarily a set standard in color but I would say that is not a factory supplied coolant.
