Green antifreeze or coolant as some call it.

Make sure you use Distilled water and I find best deals on it in the drugstore chains, Walgreens & CVS.
Actually its supposed to be de-mineralized water. Distilled is better than tap water, and under no conditions ever use well water!
 
As RRR mentioned
Universal coolant. I buy one brand and use it in everything. have for years.
good for all brands. I havent had the green stuff since the universal coolant hit the store shelf.
 
50/50 premix doesn't work anyway......

You can't get all the water out the block after flushing.

So you end up with something like 40/60 (antifreeze/water) when using premix.


I always look up the cooling system capacity to figure out how much full strength antifreeze to put in. Top it with water.

Thats fine if you run a stock radiator. Can always mix it a tad stronger as well. Can go as much as 70%coolant with some brands.

That is a very good point. I remember I used to do that when I was young and smart. But then got lazy and have mixed 50/50 and filled it on. But not used to buy premixed.

But thank you for getting me back on track
