The longer it’s in there, the more likely it is to cause a clog. The orange coolant is only good for 5 years regardless. With pink slime in the cooling system, there’s a good chance that the transmission warmer is internally failed. On these trucks the warmer is located near the lower front of the engine compartment. The warmer only has coolant flow until the transmission reaches operating temperature, at which point a valve diverts the transmission fluid to the cooler or back to the transmission. That may explain why it took so long for the issue to re-appear.</p></blockquote><p></p>
