Default Unfortunately, it's probably been circulated through the system...>

By now gary. Mixing anything with G12 is a problem. You might want to look at a complete system flush...

Default That is what Im thinking about having done...There only 3 miles from the house...So drove from here

to there...Should I be worrid about driving it 10 miles to dealer on tues?? Should the system flush fix everything also and then I should not be worried??? Just dont want long tern Damage and wondering if system flush will cure it??

It's not that dangerous, lots of times people just use water for coolant.
