Just remember there is two different types of SCA, DCA-2 and DCA-4. Napa cool and Fleetcharge are DCA-2. The ford additive and Fleetguard are DCA-4. Same goes with the test strips.

The best thing to do if you don't want to have to check your coolant is just get a coolant filter with the addative in there and change it every other oil change or so.

everything checked out perfect! the addative is dead on, the coolants good till like -60 (i think that's what it said it was kinda small! haha) and the Ph is within where it should be. :D

I was unaware that the strips went bad in a year. My buddy gave me a box of them. I will check to see which kind they are. If buckeye runs out, I can ship mine till they are gone.

Have any more?

I'm having a tough time getting them locally and I sure would like to check them on the F-350 I just bought....
