New here, and before I ask, I'll give the disclaimer that i've done a bunch of searching without finding a clear answer.
My truck is a diesel. I just drained my coolant and put in some O'reilly's plain green with HyperLube Super Coolant for Diesels. Pretty sure the coolant is full of Silicates, since it says "protects aluminum". That being said, am I safe to leave this coolant in for a year or so? How long before the gelling or the precipitates start falling out? It was implied on one of these threads that it takes a couple years for problems to show up.
Any good answers? Thanks.
