Go to the Ford dealer and get their silica based coolant.
The new DexCool coolant uses an organic acid as the protectant instead of the silica. The organic acid is also a plasticizer, think Armor All and keeping your dashboard from cracking. A plasticizer keeps plastic flexible. Unfortunately certain intake gaskets, the GM 4.3 liter intake manifold gasket for one, softened and failed with the DexCool coolant.
Do not use Prestone Universal or anything that says extended life 150,000 miles. Those all use the US organic acid technology which is different from the Japanese extended life coolant or the German/European extended life coolant.
