Re: 98 Regal Dex Cool question

Well, I would be a little worried about that drain.....it might pop out on it's own.....was the plug plastic or metal? If plastic, you rotate it counter clockwise, AND, you have to pull it outward at the same time.....there is a little pin in the plug that follows a groove as you pull it out....

As for coolant, you are not suppose to mix the green with the dexcool......however, if you get MOST of the dexcool out you can add green coolant to the system, but you have to change it 2yr/24k, whichever comes first....

The main reason for orange sludge, is a leak......when an air pocket is formed, it will cause the dexcool to react with it, and to sludge up.....
