It has the wrong (green) antifreeze so I want to flush it and replace with
the blue.




Now, is this really true? I'm not being argumentative here, I'm just curious
(I'm an air-cooled guy who just bought an '84 Vanagon Westy). After reading
this I went out to my garage and looked at a gallon of Peak antifreeze I
have (for my Chevy van). It says "PROTECTS ALL metals used in ALL cooling
systems, including aluminum", so is green necessarily an indication of the
wrong antifreeze?  Jeff
