Suzuki Anti Freeze .....green stuff, premixed, need 3 &1/2 qts. It's also an anti-boil, you know, the stock stuff ????........lowers the freezing temperature, and raises the boiling point. How cold is very cold ????.......

The following came from their website. Sounds to me that something is amiss! ???

Engine Ice Hi-Performance Coolant is biodegradable, phosphate free & non-toxic; while reducing operating race temperatures by as much as 50°F and effectively keeping boil over temperatures to 256 °F or less and freeze-up protection to -27° F.
