Hi All,

Nothing in any of my manuals, wondering the rad in our 1523 is aluminum or copper?

They look Aluminum. Either way I don't think it's worth it to scrap it!

Thanks. I was wondering because we are doing a coolant service soon, and I would love to switch the tractor over to Dexcool. Is this ok to do?

I don't know much about Dexcool. I think that newer coolant is able to replace the old green stuff. I would think with all the aluminum in vehicles today any of the auto grade stuff would work well.
