I understand that Dex-cool formulas, which are a type of OAT, should not be mixed with HOAT formulas, nor IAT formulas.
But I cannot find out if Zerex Asian formula will react or interact with Zerex G-05.
The non-technical differences between these are that one is Phosphate included (Asian), and one is Silicate included (G-05).
Both are HOAT antifreeze. The Phos or Silicate are the inorganic additives that define it as a Hybrid, as opposed to an OAT.
Dex-cool OAT is a different organic acid chemistry to modern HOATs.
But what about HOATs interacting negatively with other HOATs?
Do either of these, Zerex G-05 or Zerex Asian Formula have anything in them that would interact for a negative outcome in nominal engine operation, and if so, what would it be and do?
Let me get this out of the way before it is suggested; yes, I know you can flush old antifreeze out and put in fresh. Such method is good, but not the object of this discussion/thread.
