What causes antifreeze to turn to mud?
Generally it is caused by mixing two incompatible types of antifreeze. Such as regular green propylene glycol with Dex-Cool. They are supposed to be mixable, but they turn into an orange-green mud in the cooling system.

Should you drain the orange antifreeze before you put in the neon green?
You must drain and flush the orange before going green, and there is a chance you may not get it all. Orange plus green = sludge. It's better for the first time to drain the orange, flush the best you can, and use the universal "works with all" antifreeze. Then you can go green with any subsequent changes. You absolutely should NOT change from the orange Dexcool to green antifreeze. The green will deteriorate certain components and gaskets used in the engines that use the Dexcool antifreeze. Yes, the orange is much more expensive, but it does not require flushing and replacing very often. I would never put the green in a car that requires the orange.

What happens when you mix green and orange antifreeze in a jeep wrangler?
The difference between the two colors is that orange antifreeze contains a different type of corrosion inhibitor that has a much longer service life than silicates, phosphates and borates. Orange antifreeze contains organic acids that protect engine parts from corrosion. Silicate (green) type antifreeze does not mix with orange type antifreeze. Never mix the two colors in a cooling system. The organic acids in orange types will cause precipitation of silicates in the green type and corrosion protection is greatly reduced.
