I'll admit it. I've never added anti-freeze. There's always been a boyfriend or male family member around who volunteered. Well it's freezing cold and time for me to figure this out for myself. I know there are 2 major types of antifreeze-reg and dex-and I don't know which one I have in my car (because I am still struggling to get the overflow cap off that my brother put on super-tight) I bought Peak brand antifreeze that says it is for any car and can be added to any color of antifreeze so i should have no worries about putting in the wrong type, right? Also, do I have to mix anti-freeze and water 50/50 in a bucket and pour it in or is it okay to just pour in a pint of AF ad then a pint of water? Also, can I add this to my overflow tank or does it need to to straight in my radiator? Thanks in advance. Oh, and f you can recommend a basic car-care book (theSaturn manual isn't very informative) for girls like me who want to learn about this stuff, feel free to do that too.
