How much new anti/freeze should I expect to purchase to re-fill the radiator? I was thinking like 4 new jugs.   Mark (Mrroverman) Member Username: Mrroverman Post Number: 62 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 05:58 pm:    I use one gallon of antifreeze and the rest water and Red Line water wetter.   Peter J Blatt (Peteb) Member Username: Peteb Post Number: 225 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 06:18 pm:    Whatever you do, use eather 50/50 mix pre mixed, or mix in yourself 50/50, but DO NOT USE WATER from your tap!!!!! Use distilled water or water from an R.O. water filter! If you use tap water, you will be introducing minerals into your system, and that leads to additional corrosion and the clogging of the expensive rad.
