PART TRADING: If you have parts you would like to trade please do so at r/partIt I wouldn't mix ZAF with G-05, same as I wouldn't mix latter with IAT Original Green.Join the /r/MechanicAdvice IRC for instant conversations with other users on libera.chat irc network. Readily available as concentrate, and reasonably priced. 'Apparently' silicates used in "oldest" AF doesn't mean much in many/most modern day vehicles.īack to topic, OP vehicle specs G-05 that would be my first choice. Silicates are not present in Asian P(H)OAT, Chrysler/Mopar OAT or any Dexcool/Dexclones, all OAT based. Silicates used and ethylene glycol used doesn't change that 'for me'. G-05 is organic acid based, Original Green is Inorganic based, not the same or for me even similar and I would not mix the two. 'Could' be low'er' silicate than say IAT 25 years ago, however doesn't help recommended service interval.Īpparently set off by the observation of personal non agreement that G05 the same or close to IAT original Green. Otoh as example/evidence, AZ conventional green still recommends 2 year/24k mile interval, same any older IAT original Green. Zerex is one that does advertises low silicate formula (patented according to them) and backs it up with a 5yr.100k mi. Since broached though, I've seen no evidence that "ALL" IAT original/conventional Green now low silicate as stated. It adds little and IAT is also off topic. Unsure of the reason for quote with history of silicates, G05, or extraneous Euro AF.
