I just did the flush and fill thing on a 2.1 engine. Bentley says the coolant capacity is 18.4 US quarts, or 4.6 gallons. I filled and drained my system several times and got 12 quarts out consistently. I have now filled and bled it, and have about 3.5 gallons in it. So 1 gallon of coolant and the rest water doesn't seem right.

The ratio ends up just about right.
