A few weeks ago a concern was raised about Amsoil motor oil turning to gel when mixed with coolant. I stopped by my local dealer today & asked him what he knew about it. Yes, it is a problem, especially with ethylene glycol. It's less of a concern with propylene glycol. The way I figure, you're screwed anyway if you have coolant in the oil so for me it's a non-issue.
