the other thing is that "close" neutral and neutral are still pretty different as far as science is concerned. Also things dont have over night either. Unless you have a Ph of like 11 or 12. But say its 8 or 6. Well your going to find yourself chemically reacting til things settle out.

You maybe better with using a 60/40 though - it'll balance better IMHO. 50/50 would be good when not using that additive. How many ounces is that bottle? I know the stock coolant system is a little over two gallons I believe, we can probably figure this out, lol...

I think it's 16oz

8.3 is usually what happens when you mix distilled water and gylcol type anti-freeze together. I'll probably email RP with questions about it. (This is all going into the article about cooling. I just want to get my facts and stuff straight before typing it up)
