Antifreeze question
I want to end up with a 50/50 mix in my radiator but when I first filled up the radiator I started with antifreeze and then added water.
My problem is I don't have any idea of what kind of mix I have.
Does anyone know what a 50/50 mix should check on the temp scale.

All the auto parts places, Walmart, etc sell a little thing that's like a battery hygrometer, with little ***** or a needle that tells you what % you have by sucking a little into it. Not sure what you mean by "temp scale"?
Be sure to run it a while so it's mixed up before testing it.

Antifreeze
Thanks,
Most I have used over the years calibrate to the temperature.
On the "easy to use ones" I didn't know it shows the percent of mixture along with the safe temperature.
