Universal anti-freeze
I have a small leak when driving, but not when idling. I have been using Pentofrost" to keep it full, but changed to Prestone universal that is guaranteed to work with any car and not void the warranty. I go through about a half gallon of 50/50 mix every month. Much cheaper than Pentofrost. Any potential issues? I think I "fixed" the leak with Bars-Leak (the copper stuff), but hope I'm not creating more problems.

The overflow reservoir is known to develop micro cracks and leak. Also the bottom has a nipple that cracks. Also the T that comes off the top. Otherwise there are many hoses in more difficult locations that develop leaks. Lots has been posted over the years if you are skillful at searching.
