You want your system to have a 50/50 mixture to gain the perfect compromise of freezing point and boiling point, maximize heat absorption, and the 50% antifreeze (ethylene glycol) will have have corrosion inhibitors in it that help to keep the parts and engine from rusting/corrosion. The ONLY exception to this is if you're adding, and what's already in the system is pure antifreeze, then you'll want to dilute it as close to 50/50 as possible with only distilled water (or vise versa). Whether you've done a cooling system flush or you're tapping off the level, it should be a mix. ![]() Maybe I'm misinterpreting what you're asking but here is always the goal (unless your house is an igloo): Whatever you add to your cooling system should always be mixed with 50% antifreeze and 50% distilled water.
