Hi Doug, If you are using Autobahn 'blue goop' then 50% antifreeze and 50% water will give you -37�C. If your hydrometer shows -30�C then I suspect that some water was left in after a flush or such. I'd suggest bleeding off 4 L mix and add 4 L straight antifreeze (spike the mix and save for future top ups). -Larry in Haliburton with 8" of snow on the ground and -13�C forecast tonight BRRRRRRR.
