Can Motorcraft Premium Gold coolant be mixed with other brands of long life coolants?

The answer is a definite no. Ford specifically states in their manulas and maintenance guides that Motorcraft Premium Gold coolant is not to be mixed with any other type of coolant, including their own Premium Orange and Premium Extended Life Green coolants. Dex-Cool and other "Universal" orange and green coolants are not to be mixed either, as these do not contain the specified additives Ford requires for continued cooling, anti-corrosion, and seal lubricating capabilities.

General Motors changed to Dexcool Extended Life coolant in 1996. It is the orange colored coolant. Green coolant will not hurt the system, it must be replaced about 5 times as frequently though. Beware that once you use green coolant in your cooling system, it is very dificult to remove completely if you want to use the extended life coolant in the future.


Why is there rust in the coolant container in my 2000 Lincoln town car?

It is not rust, but broken down extended life coolant. When Extended life coolant goes beyond the replacement time, every five years, it can break down and turn into a rusty sludge like substance. I would bet if you haven't changed the coolant in the car, it has never been changed.
