[AJD] anti freeze

[R Mull]

If it is going to be below freezing the day you put it in a system that will 
not mix it well, you had better premix it or you are going to have a frozen 
engine for sure.Do all the Calculations you want, premixing is the surest 
way to get it mixed properly so you can sleep at night.

Thanks,
