I have a 2011 Ford Explorer. Its a little low on coolant. I haven't done anything with the coolant since I got it 2 years ago. The cap says to only use motorcraft specialty green. The manual shows the spec wss-m97b44-d which is the dark green. It also shows the spec wss-m97b55-a which I think is ford orange coolant.
Heres a link to Ford coolants. If you look at the 2011 explorer it shows the first half of the year they used dark green. After that they went to orange. Can i assume i can switch mine to orange? If so, is that the same as dexcool. Is there something I can get at the auto parts store or Wal-Mart? I want to flush it and use something cheaper and easier to get.
