WHOOOOOOAAA there big fella.

You mean to tell me that some coolants are already pre-diluted to the
desired 50/50 mix?  Or that they may require different coolant/water mixture
percentages to achieve their peak efficiency?

Here I was all these years, blindly pouring in a gallon of the green stuff
and then refilling that empty container with water and pouring in that
gallon as well.  Damn, I really DO need to read the labels more closely.
