    Maybe it was mixed coolant, not ruled out, but it would have had to have been mixed at Brunswick, which at the time I thought unlikely. I dropped coolant and changed it (high pressure flushing the block) after finding this when I pulled the thermostats at just over the two year mark. There was no sign of any other corrosion anywhere else but the coolant was dirty.

    Just ran a wire from one of the thermostat bolts to the negative battery terminal as a precaution after being advised by Gryphon Engineering that they believed it was stray current related. A year later it was still nice and clean.
    Between Patrols ATM. Had a beaut GU with 6.5 Chev TD. Next is a GU ute with a 4.5 litre Cummins conversion and a camper on the back.
