Sorry for being a little vague. REM is telling you is his version of coolant flush. With just a drain and refill you will never get all of the old mix out, so he is saying drain completely, refill with distilled water, run, cool, drain completely again, add 4.5 quarts of antifreeze and top up with distilled water. This way you are ensured of the proper 50/50 solution. I know it's a bit of a waste to buy that second gallon of antifreeze for 1 pint, but if you're like many of us, we generally take a do it right or don't do it at all approach. REM is very meticulous. Someday I hope to approach his standard. :-)
