A week ago, I posted a message regarding a pinhole in the water inlet neck that was causing antifreeze to spray out.
The part is on order, and I will replace it and complete the flush of the coolent system early this week. Since then I have done some research about coolent system problems with newer GM autos because of Dexcool. My factory warranty is up on my 2000 S10 Blazer but I have an extended warranty for another 15k miles. I am concerned that if I continue to use Dexcool based antifreeze that my issues are going to get worse and become more costly. And GM might not cover coolent system problems under my extended warranty...
What are the ramifications of going back to the old school green antifreeze or is this even possible?
I apologize if this topic has been discussed before, but I am new to this list and do not know how to search archives. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thx.
