04 Explorer Coolant

[Jarrett88]

Hey guys, new here to the forum. I bought a Ford Explorer 04 Eddie Bauer a few monthes ago and just had a few questions. I need to fill my coolant because it is low, however the coolant the previous owner used is green and not yellow. Therefore I am wondering which type of green coolant should I fill it with to top it off?

They are compatible. Buy the Walmart stuff because it's cheaper. I think it's made by Prestone. Same stuff at auto supply is almost double the price.

buy the same green stuff?

You can mix the green or yellow. But I think orange is different. Honestly, you should probably just dump the whole thing, flush and put new stuff in if you don't know the history of the vehicle.
