2001 Camaro SS fluid change

[2001ssde]

I just flushed my coolant on my camaro. It was dexcool and I did not like the debris that flushed with the Dexcool. I placed Xerex G-O5 in place of the Dexcool. Please confirm that the Xerex will be suitable for my situation. Calm my nerves. Thanks,

To answer your question, it is probably OK to use G-05. I had a similar situation yesterday...

The "debris" was stop leak. When the factory puts the coolant in, they drop a few tablets of stop leak in as well.

The G-05 is for Fords and others, though I doubt it will hurt anything.

I run Toyota Red in my '96 Impala SS

Probably put it in Miata as well, but need to do some research. My Toyota Red choice was based on research I did a few years back...

I see white threads of stop leak in GM dexcool fluid but I rarely see a gunked up fluid compared to green. Dexcool stays deceptively clear even when its past its useful life.
