Default what about FLEET CHARGE coolant?

Is FLEET CHARGE a good coolant for powerstroke 7.3?

Antifreeze FLEET - Coolant | O'Reilly Auto Parts


I cant seem to find anything at any of our local parts houses....

I am doing a coolant bypass/filter, 203 thermostat and flushing the system.

I just wanted to know before I waste $50-$80 on coolant

I get the cheap 50-50 stuff from autozone... or Wal-mart... and run it with a filter.

No issues at all.

But I dont put much money on some of the amsoil and snake oil crap...

Fleet Charge is good, so is MOST of the others, but I'm switching to CatCool soon.

Ill keep the factory one just in case. I thought the 203 is what international designed the engine to run on...
