The hose ends to the aux rad seemed very hidden (recollection from a peek last month) .   Folks normally remove the bumper ?  Grill ?

Tommorrow will start at 20F and go down hill all week.    I have no experience with a a type 44.    Any tips?    I thought I calibrated my 2 antifreeze testers by making up known mixes using prestone but the same # of balls didn't float using Pentosin NF antifreeze.
