That was a stupid question. Anyway, it IS 50/50 on ANY car. They also sell pre-mixed antifreeze at wal-mart for like 5 bucks or something like that. It's what I use.

lol don't use water. Eventually it turns into wierd chunky stuff cuz regular water has iron and calcium and magnesium, all that shit, whatever one. Distilled water is the way to go but just get 50/50 mix.

Distilled, meaning bottled water, just incase you don't understand.

Just casue its bottled doesnt mean its distilled, bottled water you drink is not distilled, unless it says so on the package or bottle.

You can buy distilled water at giant or shoppers, in those gallon milk jug things.
