Orange is dexcool. Green stuff is good, but make sure you flush out all of the dexcool if you switch over because you should not mix them.

All 96 should have came stock with Dexcool (orange). Stick with it if you have it.

My 96 also came stock with the orange. I wouldn't change it to something else.
