I pulled the radiator cap off today and the coolant had solidified all around the inside of the filler neck in a gel-like mass. What gives? Thanks.

Thanks, Engineboy. I also talked to my old man last night and he said he had half an old jug of Prestone that had done the same thing. This is really strange. Since the car was used, the stop leak theory sounds good. But why was that jug of fresh stuff solidified (in 75* weather). Looks like it's Havoline for me from here on out!
