How much damage putting wrong antifreeze in engine?

It depends. If your car uses the special long-life coolant dex-cool (orange) no immediate damage with normal 50 water 50 antifreeze. However, according to GM for my Oldsmobile Intrigue doing this would reduce the suggested coolant maintenance point from 150,000 miles down to 30,000 miles. If your car uses normal (green) anti-freeze and you were to use dex-cool it could permanently damage the vehicle since the particles not designed for the vehicle will always remain. So what did the manufacturer suggest as optimal and what did you put? And what do you consider as damage? Introducing a hassle or complete breakage?

How do you burp a car coolant system?

Fill the vehicle with coolant and leave the filler cap off. Start the vehicle and keep adding fluid as the coolant level drops. When the motor is warm enough for the thermostat to open up you will see the coolant level drop quickly. Put in more coolant until it is full then shut off the motor and put the filler cap back on.
