Back up just a bit.
I don't know that things have changed a lot since 95, but, I just did a water pump replacement on the 95. The instructions with it indicated they recommended using Extended Life coolant to protect the water pump and the rest of the cooling system. I don't know what the specific makeup difference is between regular and extended life but I thought I would throw that in there.
