Is the color of this coolant orange? One customer says great replacement for green coolant. I'm trying to find a coolant for my 2011 Ford Mustang 5.0

It can be used anywhere but if g-05 is not what is already in it, make sure to flush your current system a few times with distilled water first as G-05 shouldn't be mixed with others.

sorry for the delay. This coolant is almost water clear. It has just a touch of amber hue to it. I wouldn't call it orange though. It looks like weak lemonade in the coolant overflow bottle. Normal aintifreeze looks like mountain dew. I am not sure what you need for your car. My 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee specifies this G-05 spec coolant.

It's a gold color. I used it to replace the coolant in a 05 V6 mustang. Did you get a coolant leak? Seems a little early to be replacing coolant on a 2011.

It is a very faint orange. You cannot judge any coolant by the color - it is meaningless. There are some brands that are also orange but they usually a completely different technology. This kind is HOAT which is used in a lot of Daimler Chrysler, Cummings, and some Ford applications, and some European. It does meet Ford Ford WSS-M97B51-A1 Approved standards.

My watering can was a bright "lime" like color. Not a bright green---but a neon like color. you do not get too choose a color. I was told they have many colors, but you get whatever is thrown into your box for your order. If was great for my grand kids--they had fun--they put stickers on them and used paint markers for kids. and they watered some. they were a little small for the price--I thought---but the kids liked them and that is all that matters. hope this helps you.

I ordered two bottles and had the extra one laying it on the side. It leaked around the cap (it has never been opened) and it's orange. Now that I'm reading in the answers about it turning orange, I wonder if it is still good.

Double check me but I'm 95% sure that you mix it 50/50 with distilled water. i would not top off with this if its not already in there. i would top off with distilled water or drain and fill with coolant distilled water mix.

I have it. I think it's more red than orange. Definitely not an orange orange, if anything it's a red/orange.

Yes, both orange residue on the plugs and orange residue in the tailpipe. I'm running 95 octane (according to Torco blend chart) using 91 pump gas on a supercharged 2012 Civic Si. I have Iridium tip plugs and change them out about every 10K miles (I have ~30K miles on the car now and am on my third set of plugs) -- there is a healthy saturation of orange residue on the plugs after only 10K miles.BTW, car runs exceptionally well with the Torco Accelerator. Torco Accelerator has eliminated all knocks, both random and under WOT conditions.

The one that I bought was "colorless". i.e. I had it painted the color of my car (red). But it was a perfect fit. It so happened that I had a little left-over paint (car paint of my car), and a body shop did the paint for something like 30$. I installed it myself, easily in about an hour. So all in all, way better that at the dealer, they were asking some 300$ with taxes and everything.

It's very easy to clean it inside. All you have to do it is wipe it clean. I highly recommend this coolant.

Yep. Entire thing is 5500K. The filter that comes with it isn't 3200 either, it's far too orange.

I just had regular coolant (green) and it worked very well. I even got in a freeway accident that caused a complete loss of coolant on the spot. When I got it home I refilled and added another dose of Bars Leak and it actually worked again. As for that specific type of coolant you might have to contact Bars Leak or just see if it does. The alternative is mechanical repair $$$

The exactly color is like HID Xenon 6000k,Just google this color and compare.

Yes. I've used mine and clean it after every use but still see some green/orange tint no matter what.

NO there is no orange color that this system. Color it does have is teal, blue, yellow, red, white, blue, green, and a light pink but as your changing your color patterns it does a blend of colors I've been asked that they look cool at night and also bright and they contour to your car as you set them up than those tube lights. HAVE FUN AND ENJOY.

Subarus basically fall into two coolant categories by color. More recent models (I have an 09 Impreza) have the blue coolant, which is "Super Coolant". In older models the coolant is more of a green color. Don't mix the Super Coolant with any other type of coolant; if you're having some type of leak, get it fixed and replace all the fluid with the same type of coolant.

Sorry Happy, but our Challenger is metallic orange. Thank you for your interest. Model Empire Inc.

I just used my stocker if I remember right. Not a bad time to replace it though. The spring in them can go out over time leading to incorrect pressurization of the coolant system. The caps are cheap through advance or auto zone or whatever is close to you. Radiator works like a charm though. Installation was cake and cools like a champ. Never climbs above 210 in the summer even with the ac on full blast.

I have this color, "Marine". I find it's a bit paler than the picture in reality. Kind of a light neutral greenish blue seafoam. I really like it, looks great with a gray or black car interior. I got it because I figured it gets less hot.
