[s-cars] Gelling coolant

[Harold McComas]

What color is the coolant? If you mix G11 (blue) and G12 (pink) these two 
incompatible coolants should result in a nice brown pudding being formed. So 
I have been told. I would do a flush and coolant swap as quick as you can. 
Next coolant swap I am going to be trying G12+ ( purple color), supposed to 
be compatible with both G11 and G12.
