    Just so you know guys, standard green coolant + orange dexcool = sludgey mess that gums up your water jackets. unless it says use with any color/type do NOT try it. So thing about the chemical make up of dexcool causes it to gel and adding regular coolant makes it happen almost overnight.
    2004 Chevy/Regency RST, 6.0L LQ4, custom built NV MG-5 tranny by local Tranny Guru, Hurst Shifter, K&N FIPK, stock Regnecy Exhaust, 3.73 gears w/ Eaton Locker, and the Magnacharger huffer topping it off w/ stock pulley... for now

    That is only if you use straight up old style green coolant mixed with coolant. Just be careful if you buy green coolant it is the compatible with Dexcool which probably 90% are now.

    Thats the temp sensor from what I gather from your post. You can get a flush kit from most auto part stores that you use with your garden hose, Its not tree hugger friendly but does the job quite well, Then you can fill with your coolant of choice after flushing. I recomend multi vehicle coolant just to be safe, Its piss yellow and cost a few $$ more.
