Thanks John! I didn't know that.johnmurray wrote:Advice from the frozen north is that you should never put "pure" anti-freeze in the re-circulating side of your engine's cooling system.
While different anti-freeze products vary somewhat, in the general case a 50-50 mix of anti-freeze and water will provide protection down to about -40C. Going to a mix of 60% antifreeze and 40% water (that is what I use) increases the protection down to about -50C. If you increase the percentage of anti-freeze much above that the protections starts to degrade and you end up with less protection rather than more. On the label of an anti-freeze product that I use the manufacturer warns to NEVER use more than 70% anti-freeze.
