Default Coolant question . GM 1825M ?

Went through An older thread but it seemed to be a mix of opinions on coolant. My 94 has green stuff in it and I was picking up new coolant to fill today and couldn't seem to find any I was convinced would be good. Most of the stuff was universal fill.

Finally I found a green coolant that has quite a few specs listed .. Should this coolant be fine??

From what I can gather even though this stuff is approved for the Gm specs and lots of diesel specs it is silicate free and therefor not the stuff I want. Thanks !!

Based on the info in this thread, went to Auto Zone and picked up 2 gallons of their Green Antifreeze with the correct UPC #, this will be for the 94.

Then went over to Advance Auto and picked up 2 gallons of Peak Green Antifreeze which states on the label for: GM 1995 and earlier.....
If you already get email from Advance Auto, you should have a $10 coupon which is good to use towards a $25 purchase or more of anything in the store. Check your email, it does expire tomorrow. This will be for the 74 & the 82 when needed.

Would like to change the fluid in the 94 before the trip to BG in May....

In Canada we don't have autozone. We have napa and Partssource among others like cdn tire. Seems everywhere I look it's universal coolant. Will try GM tomorrow . I still have the drained coolant I might filter it and just add more water to the mix and put it back in.
