Ok. Prestone antifreeze the one that looks like bright yellow, chartreuse, does not specifically make note that it meets Japanese engine manufacturers requirements for silicate free additive, it may or may not, but
Dex Cool, by Havoline does say that it meets the Japanese standard. So I guess I will be adding the Dex Cool. I have 10 gallons of it.

Not trying to start an antifreeze war, so please don't take it as such. But, I put Dex Cool in a car of mine, and it gelled up in the radiator, and when I cleaned it out, I found many deep pits. After the fact, I started doing some research. Seems many others have had problems with the stuff eating away at their intakes and heads. It had even picked up the name "Death Cool". Seems the problems were (1), it does not mix with other antifreezes,,,,, be sure to flush, and flush again before you install. And (2), it does not like air. The cooling system MUST be, and stay, air tight.
Again, no flames please, just passing on my experence, and what I read elsewhere. By all means, use what you want.
