Dumb coolant question

[bayarea7]

So last summer I got some OEM g13 and mixed it 1:1 with distilled water and topped off. The mixed solution has been sitting in my garage in a sealed bottle, it's still okay to use correct? It doesn't like denature after it's been mixed? Thanks

It’s completely fine.

I'd still use it and have done so in the past.

I thought the OEM G13 was pure? I didn’t think you were supposed to cut it.

It's to be mixed equal parts with distilled water. (50/50)

When I lived in Bay Area back in 80's I ran Water/Coolant 60/40 which is more than sufficient for that climate.

The only dumb question is the one you don't ask. If someone gives you shit for asking a question that reflects on then not you. As for your question, as long as the top was on I'd guess it be good for a long time.

It'll say on the bottle. My OEM VW G13 coolant bottle says pre-mixed do not add water.
