Concerned now, despite reassurances above, that the coolant may have some rotten stuff in it.

It's the Peak Global Longlife, which according to some sources has some amount of the 2-EHA crap in it that made dexcool eat peoples motors alive.

It was only a half-quart at the most that went in, am I good to go for a few months until draining and re-filling this fall if need be?

The coolant is listed as safe for aluminum radiators, motors, and is silicate and phosphate free... I thought that was all Suzuki required, but I'm getting a headache and internet mechanical medical student syndrome about this today.
