( I want to make SURE I use the correct stuff. ) The manual warns against use of a particular ford extended life antifreeze. A call to the local Ford dealer advised to "use the green stuff". The auto parts place advised Prestone/Store Equiv. "mix with ANY color antifreeze" product. I'm thinking I'm safe with the Prestone product.

Using a Dexcool (the orange one) could damage the seals...
So yes, use the green Prestone...

Thanks for the information. The Prestone color is approximately yellow with a green tinge to it -- certainly not orange -- so I guess it's OK. Jim H.
