[V8] Prestone coolant

[Klein, Nathan P]

Good point.  I should clarify that I put in the Prestone coolant after
replacing my heater core, so the cooling system was completely flushed.

It's compatible with what the manufacturers are installing now.  It's
not compatible, as I understand it, with what they put into cars in the
1990-94 period.  If you're going to use that red stuff, you should flush
out your system completely, including the heater core,  until you get
nothing but clear.  I'm still using VW Autobahn myself.
