    Prestone premixed 50/50 universal green antifreeze

    I just filled up my tank with Prestone premixed 50/50 universal green antifreeze. I was (still am???) leaking juice and my reservoir was low so I filled it with this.

    So far so good. I hope it is ok.

    I have been an original owner and mine came from the factory with green anti-freeze which I assume would be Isuzu's brand.

    I did however switch to "Havoline Dexcool" after about a year of ownership and have been running it with no issues since. I did have to flush the cooling system a couple of times to get all of the green coolant out so as to not have any mix with the new dexcool...as I didn't want "mud" colored anti-freeze!

    If you look to the far right of my photo you can see the coolant recovery bottle with the Havoline Dexcool in it.

    It's against the law to have an engine look that good
