I inherited several vehicles in various states of disrepair - the coolant in every single one of them varies from probably at least 5 to as much as 13 years old by now. (the last being a 'grandpas favorite' spending all its time in storage, taken out once per month to church type of thing, as he went senile and I don't think did any time-based maintenance - still an oil change sticker from i think 2005 on it and it hasn't had 2000 miles since then)
There were also multiple unopened bottles of coolant and a few opened. (nothing mixed though, all straight)
Is it necessary to drain and flush everything and toss out all old coolant, or could very low mileage make it literally okay until some miles have been put on?
Since i'm already conveniently here what about 10 year old cases of dinosaur oil?
