Advance Auto antifreeze is Prestone

[Nitrox]

Well, finding Zerex around here is a PITA. Checked 2 Advance Autos. Autozone and Pepboys are too far for me to waste my time. Walmart doesn't have it either. Seems Prestone and Texaco are available. I checked the label on the Advance Auto extended drain antifreeze, and it is made by Prestone. Container stated it was compatible with everything else out there, and is the 5/150k stuff. I don't know that much about which coolant to use, but I figure with a proper flush the AA stuff will work okay. I bought 10 gallons of distilled water and a bottle of RMI-25 as well.

Screw it. I found a Pep Boys near my office. Bought 3 gallons. I'm returning the Advance Auto stuff.

I saw elsewhere someone asked who makes the ST and Advance Auto antifreezes, so I was posting that they were made by Prestone. I wanted to use the G-05 but Pep Boys is kind of far from me. Well, I was on a work assignment the other day, and it took me past a Pep Boys, so I stopped in and bought 3 gallons of G-05, and returned the Advance Auto stuff.
