Hmm. Modern long life stuff is said to attack some of the metals you might find in an older car - like ferrous and copper. Anti-freeze that is kind to that isn't as long life.

I grant you its ambiguous but 30 seconds of internet searching answers the question unambiguously. Oddly enough, the answer can be found on Bluecols web pages. Whod have thought it?
