I've just replaced all three radiator hoses on my '02 Outback H6 3.0. My
antifreeze tester pointer goes all the way to the top leading me to believe
that I may have too much antifreeze in the system and not enough water. If
this is so, what would be the result?
Thanks,
John

Hi,
It works best when mixed with water 50:50. You can buy premixed ones.

If you put in too much antifreeze the freezing point of the mixture
actually goes back up.
