Depends on what you consider old! It's a 2000 1500 Sierra. Put a new radiator in and it seems to have fixed it. I need to hook up the trailer and put a load on it to be sure though.

It has 220K miles on it LOL. Last year I had it flushed with a dealers flush machine and switched form dexcool to green coolant. I noticed the coolant that came out when I did the water pump was green in the drain pan but when I put it in a clear container it had an noticeable orange hue, there was also sediment at the bottom of the drain pan. I'm guessing not all the dexcool got out and it gelled inside the radiator.
