Just curious what type of radiator everyone uses. Do you just use the green old stuff or something else.

Anyone adds that Heat Reducing Additive?

Pink stuff called Dex-cool. do NOT mix with green stuff--nasty brown stuff is the result. If you're low, add water if you can't get the pink stuff.

Planohummer is exactly correct.. Dex-Cool is the ONLY antifreeze that should ever be put in your Hummer cooling system. If you use the green antifreeze Im sure your warranty will be negatively affected! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif
