Any good way to tell if what I have in a jug is pure undiluted antifreeze or a diluted mixture ?
I thought pure would not float balls in the cheap tester. Been years since I tested any pure though. But I had a jug marked 50/50 and one marked as undiluted. They both floated the same amount of balls ? The one marked as undiluted appeared a little darker ? so I used it as marked and mixed it 50/50 with distilled water and made up 1 gallon. Well then I tested it again. It would only float like 2 of the 5 balls ? so then I thought it must of already been 50/50 and mislabeled. What really seems weird is since I only added 1/2 gallon of water I thought 1/2 a gallon of pure would be all I needed to get back to a 50/50 mix ? I went to the 55 gal drum and ran out some more as it definitely should not of ever been mixed up. I ended up putting in at least 3/4 or more of a gallon to get it back up to float 5 balls and the last ball slowly made it up to near the others. I tried 2 of these tester and got same reading on both. I was running out of bucket to add more so went ahead and put what I needed in the tractor. This sure seems weird ? This weekend I'm going to use another tester and see what I ended up at.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
