Hello, I did a radiator drain and fill yesterday. I used green Zerex Asian, and didn't realize that there was a blue option. Since both are HOAT, I was wanting to know if it was safe to leave the green coolant in there?

Hi,

I did a little research for you and what I am seeing is the difference in color is nothing more than a different color dye. So, you should be fine. Both coolants are HOAT coolants.

Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
