Thank you, I will stop running it! Yes I did add water....I figured one gallon of antifeeze and two gallons of water......should be fine. I later realized it was 50 percent.....I don't ever remember it being sold watered down before??? I will purchase that tester....because these engines don't have freeze out plugs.
Thanks gentlemen,
Tom

Core plugs won't do anything to prevent blocks from cracking due to people using only water. They are only there to plug the holes used to hold the cores in place during the casting process.
