[AT] antifreeze

[Chris Britton]

I'm not sure if this helps you or not.. but here goes.

In looking for an antifreeze that was ok for the wet liners in my ford 5000
and NH 7610s diesel tractors, but that would also be ok for all my other
gasser tractors, which admittedly are mostly fords, I went by my CNH 
dealership.

He said they use the standard green coolant in everything, except for 
cavitation and electrolysis issues, they mix in an addative.  i think it IS 
FW-15 or FP-15.. can't remember which.. but it is a little 16oz or so 
bopttle.. costs about 5 bucks.  A bottle will treat my 7610s.  You can get 
test strips to check the concentration.

I know only keep the green a-f around, and when i service my big diesels.. i 
add that addative in the proper ratio... etc.
