For coolant, back of Dex- says 50/50 the counter salesperson says No, No full strength. Any feed back? Thanks and have a great weekend All

If the jug says 50/50 mix then stay with that. It is water that does the cooling not the antifreeze. So without water antifreeze is useless. Even in very cold climates they use 65/35 antifreeze to water ratio.

Dont use tap water.Go to the store and buy some distilled water for your 50/50 mix.

The only time you would use it full strength is if you are using the overpriced "premixed" stuff. That stuff is 50/50 already in the bottle. They take half of a $10 bottle of AF out and replace it with water. Then they charge you $9 for it. What a deal! NOT!!
