Are you sure it _all_ drained? If so, check the capacity figures in your drivers' manual or Haynes and make sure it is all in there. Take heed the warnings that you have to tilt the car and burp the cooling system to get all the air out. >I used straight fluid, not a mix of Prestone and water, but all Prestone, is >that okie? Aaack! Heavens NO! Don't use anymore that a 50/50 mix! Antifreeze has only about 25% of the ability to transfer heat that water has. Antifreeze is only there to raise your boiling point, lower your freezing point, and prevent corrosion. WATER is necessary for efficient cooling!
