Another tip: when using water to top off or mix coolant, always try to use distilled water. Calcium and other minerals in regular tap water will come out at high temperatures over time, and coat the inside of the radiator, thus lowering the cooling effectiveness of the system. The same thing happens to water heaters in homes. Granted, the problem will only happen over a long period of time, but it does happen.
