I use Prestone 

Dilute 50/50 ?

 

If you can jack the car up from behind when refilling the system and open the 2 bleed screws until you get a steady stream of water coming out 

Will do.

 

Leave the coolant recovery tank cap off 

Crank car 

Let it get hot around 195 or so 

Have water ready to add to tank

When steady stream comes out hot lightly close screws

And top off

System is good to go when fans come on

If fans dint come on bleed system until they do

Yep - that's how I remember that part. :)

Also... will I need 2 gallons BEFORE dilution (so four gallons of diluted)? Or two gallons diluted liquid to fill with?
