You now have less than 50:50 ratio as described by the two previous posts. On a newer car or one that has had less than the maximum number of years on the coolant, you should not have needed to flush with clear water. Drain and replace with 50:50 only the amount that you remove.
Since you had clear water in engine block, and you put back in a 50/50 mix, my estimate is you only have about 25% mix of antifreeze. I hope you live in a warm climate?
You ran water thru the system to flush it and then filled it with 50/50 pre-diluted coolant. Did I miss something or are you now driving a car with inadequate protection being down to about 25% cooland?
@@splixsky when you drain the radiator you only drain about 1/2 the coolant capacity. Meaning about a good 4 to 6 quarts of water are trapped in the block and heater core. That guy added 50/50. He was suppose to have added concentrate to have a close to 50/ 50 mix.
Ok, if I totally flush my 2013 ford Escape 2.0 ecoboost coolant would using a P-HOAT (formula that’s silicate and borate-free with HOAT (Hybrid Organic Acid Technology). Specially formulated with a phosphate additive) or would I be better with a HOAT (ethylene glycol and Hybrid Organic Acid Technology)? I can't find any good Information it just seems that they don't want you to mix them and no one shows any test on which is better and takes care of engine parts better. If it's a 100% flush which would be better? Thanks for any input..
What a Con job!. Iv'e been driving a 1968 HR Holden Sedan for just over 40 years. It's never had Coolant/Antifreeze in it, and, it still has the original radiator and hoses. Everything these days is all about relieving consumers out of their hard earned $$$$$$$$$$$$. Wake up to yourselves people!!!

surely all the water used to do the flush was all drained out seeming as the valve was already open

Hi what is the difference between the one the sell at the dealer and this brand peak
If its OEM coolant it would be the same formulation.
Is it safe to mix with Toyota antifreeze
