I bought 5 litres of blue concentrate - plenty enough - I think the cooling system holds just less than 10L so 5L is enough when diluted to 50/50 |

Ok thanks for that. I will get about 7 litres so will have enough for the sj as well.
Down here on the south coast its rare for the temp to go below -2c so should be ok. |

A 50/50 mix of the stuff I got protects to minus 30oC - so you will be OK with less than I used up here in the frozen North (well - Midlands actually!) |

Stopping freezing isn't the real issue as this is a secondary function, its main function is to prevent corrosion internally within the cooling system.
Stick with the blue and you will be fine; the 3.2 can use long life. |
