What are you trying to do? Are you doing general maintenance and want to replace the coolant, (which is 50 percent antifreeze and 50 percent water)?

My recommendation depends on if you are doing scheduled maintenance, following up after a repair, or you are trying to solve a problem. You want to end up with 50 percent antifreeze and 50 percent water, but how you get to that depends on why you are doing this.
