Default Hey from wisconsin!

hey! I am getting my grandma's 1998 blazer on thursday, and just have a few questions. I know that these blazers came with dexcool as a coolent, should i change this out to normal coolate or just leave it? also, the blazer only has 43k miles on it, garage kept and its in excelent condition, is there anything that I should have a heads up on as far as problems? The only thing that is wrong with it right now is the AC is out, but otherwise I think its soild. thanks!

Welcome to the Forum.
There are plenty of discussions here already concerning DexCool. If you use the 'search' function you can read them, so let's please not turn this thread into a DexCool argument.
If you want to browse around there is a lot of info here about what to check out on your new ride. Enjoy.

Welcome! Have a look around and I am sure you will find some facts and an awful lot of opinions on many issues.
