[Kneale Brownson]

I was recalling from years ago draining for the timing belt/waterpump, which requires front end removal. Guess I've also drained from hose available in the engine compartment 

Tediously fingered on my iPhone

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.
