What did you do to your Car today?

All clean, I swished around some purple power citrus and it got pretty clean. Then topped off the rad and filled the overflow up to the "hot" mark and let it run till the fans came on then shut it off. You can see the coolant level really well when you shine light in it.

I bought some cheap 50/50 from walmart. Its green or yellow, says it mixes with any color. I barely used a cup or 2 of it lol. When I do my flush im buying 2 gallons of concentrate and 2 gallons of distilled water. Flushing it with well water then till its clear then turn off the hose and adding green till it runs green from the top rad hose shutting the car off and filling it the rest of the way with green.

Sounds good. You can always add a cleaner to the rad a day or two before flushing since you have some mixing.
I'd have to suck some of the coolant out if I did that its really full now.

I was gonna go with a 50/50 mix but a little stronger because of possible left over water diluting it, also because its easier to see as im pouring it into the milk jugs im using. Now that I remember, when I did my elbows I accidentally used concentrate without added water to fill my rad back up lol.

I aim for 50-60%. A water flush never needs any 50/50, but only adding pure coolant afterwards might be 60/40. I added what would be half and 50/50 the rest on mine, leaving it 50/50
 
Well because of the well water I can't leave that in the block, so I'm going to basically flush (once it starts to run clean) with some either 50/50 or pure coolant to get rid of the well water.
