Coolant Spec for 2004 Grand Cherokee V-8

[Hot_Ajax]

Wife's owners manual calls for: "HOAT ethylene glycol coolant" in water should be used.
Question: What is HOAT? And what aftermarket coolant is equivalent to the HOAT formulation? Thank you

I think he means G-05 HOAT. http://www.valvoline.com/our-products/antifreeze-products/g-05-antifreeze-coolant

Mopar Long Life, or Zerex G-05, or (my choice for lowest price) Motorcraft Premium Gold.

Where are you finding Motorcraft Premium Gold at a low price?

I bought Zerex G-05 at NAPA when they had 10% off for Reserve & Pickup : $12.59 / gal. concentrate ($13.99 regular shelf price).

I've bought it at a Ford dealer for around $12 for concentrate, and actually had a dealer give me one or two when I had seeping head gaskets on my 4.6 E-250 company van.

The Mopar HOAT (pink) stuff is the same as Zerex G-05 or Ford Motorcraft Gold, but with a different color dye. Any of those 3 will work fine in there. The Zerex stuff is probably the cheapest / easiest to get.
