Good being able to thrash stuff out on an open forum huh

Personally I dont think theres a great deal of difference in the additive amounts in either a bottle of 50/50 concentrate or a 30/70 one but users should be aware there is.

Only real reason I use a premix is so that I can go anywhere and still be able to find the cheap, commonly available, one I use .... at almost any town with a halfarsed autoshop .... and not have to turn hicksville upside down hoping to find that "special" brand and a coupla bottles of distilled water.
