I have worked at a diesel repair shop for close to 5 years now. A couple of years ago I was doing a service to my sable with the 3.0 and we had ran out of standard green coolant at the shop. We did have some predilluted Mobil Heavy Duty SCA added not extended life coolant, so I choose to fill the 3.0 with it. Today I was working on a 96 BMW 740IL and came across a tsb on Alldata that said to only use ethlyene glycol coolant without any nitrite added because the nitrite will corrode the aluminum in the cooling system. I know that the Mobil Heavy Duty says it "contains Nitrite for wet cylinder sleeve protection". Now am I doing any damage to the aluminum in the 3.0 V-6 engine by running this coolant?
