I'll hunt down some full strength and do some mixing. Guess I'll just save this 50/50 for a my mom's car.

There is nothing wrong with putting the 50/50 in your car... it just isn't nice for your pocket.

Slow leak somewhere and it keeps sucking it out?

You can use the 50/50 you already have, just add some distilled water to it, to make it close to 30/70

Especially in south florida where it doesn't get that cold I know a lot of people use just straight distilled water in their systems, antifreeze doesn't affect the boiling point too much, I have put a higher pressure radiator cap (off of a 300zx) and that has lowered my temps during the summer pretty good

Don't forget to pickup a mix meter, Walmart even has it. They are about $3 and well worth it so that you don't do guess work.

the radiator always stays full and never gets hot. overflow just never jeeps anything in it.
