Default 1996 Volvo 960 Coolant What kind ???

Hello,

Recently purchased a 1996 Volvo 960 Wagon. I need to fill the coolant which is running low. It's green in color, that's all I know. I strongly suspect it's just a store brand. What brand should I add to it ??
Mix with water 50/50 I assume. I live in New England. thanks in advance, MBFish

Most coolant at the store is already mixed 50/50. Just get some green stuff to add.

I believe the OEM stuff is blue everywhere. Just don't think it matters that much as long as it's clean and mixed properly.
