I have run antifreeze that is many years old.

You either need to replace it or add a anti rust with water pump
lubricant.  There are additives in antifreeze to keep the coolant from
rusting and corroding the cooling system.  Engines with aluminum
components in contact with the coolant are especially vulnerable to
corrosion due to electrolyses.  The normal life span of these additives
is two years.
