coolant loss

Over the past two weeks all the coolant has drained form my expansion tank expansion tank and possibly the whole system. There was a slightly burning smell similar to an electrical smell two weeks ago when it was last driven, the smell seemed to come from the area around and bellow the expansion tank. There has been a lot of rain lately so any evidence on the street of a leak was washed away.
I'm going to purchase some Dexcool to get me to the shop but was wondering if its a 50/50 mix or neat?
Also any suggestions where to start looking for the leak. The engine is not misfiring so probably not a head gasket. Could it also effect the AC operation which started to develop issues a few months back.
Car is a 95 Aero with @ 173000.
TIA
