Default

mix would depend on the exact brand but a good quality BT from Millers requires a 33% mix so approx 3ltrs of a/freeze and 4lts of water

do NOT be tempted down the higher concentrate is best route as a/freeze is a poor coolant and will actually cause higher temps in similiar way that the "waterless" coolants dont work.........
