Check townsendimports.com for a great step-by-step procedure for changing coolant. Did mine last year and switched over to Mercedes coolant. Green stuff is bad . . . there are other brands similar to Mercedes . . . if I recall. Dilute 50/50 and if you use this stuff buy an extra gallon to put in the trunk in case you need it down the road. Change thermostat and fan switch too as preventative maintanance. Be careful opening drain thing at bottom of radiator on driver's side. It gets old and might crack. Also, pull freeze plug on block. Not as hard as it seems. Just take your time and be careful. I flushed mine with HOT WATER with the engine running. Not sure if this is recommended or not . . . but it worked great. Don't use cold water when the block's hot. Good luck . . . your car will appreciate your efforts.
