fyi
Dexcool is a product of Texaco.
A Goodyear mechanic told you it was the anti-freeze, a GM dealer told you it was not. Seems like a difference of opinion to me but you don't want to see that. You assumne the GM dealer is a liar and the Goodyear dealer is correct. So you have jumped to a conclusion based on hearsay and opinions.
The 4.3L engine is not one of the best engines and I don't care how good an engine is, its going to need maintenance and leaking gaskets are known to occur. Your are expecting too much for it go t 250,000 miles and not have one single problem, that would be more luck than quality.
You still have told us the info on your car, what year, make, model and mileage.
