> I suggest universal green

Just curious, is that the same as the commonly available Prestone I buy for my Corolla and truck in the yellow bottles? If so, that looks more yellow to me than green. So why do folks refer to it as “green”? Or is yellow Prestone different than univeral “green” coolant?

Yellow is the color of the universal/global antifreeze.

and All Colors.

Any major brand Long Life coolant with those words will be fine. Also major store brands like Supertech (Walmart), AutoZone etc are OK but do avoid off brands from various “dollar” stores.
