Some Honda/Acura coolant is blue, but it's the same stuff, just a different color. I think Mitsu might have also switched their factory stuff to blue too...

Some of the "universal" coolants will say on the bottle what brands they are compatible with.
Does anyone know what happens when you mix different kinds? I had a mini van for my X and she overheated it and just dumped in whatever was coolant and it kind of turned turd like. There were little piles here and there and they got clogged in the heater core.

Mitsubishi has blue? Is it only for certain cars? That would match my engine and caliper theme I have going on.
I'm gonna have to change over. Where can I get some?
