I find the 55/45 mix odd, since the coolant overflow tank cap says to use a 50/50 mix.

Everything with Mazda is a little odd really. They insist on making engines without pistons or cylinder heads, and keep pushing the Miller Cycle on the SkyActiv stuff.

To the original poster, just go to your local ford dealer, get a jug of premix ford coolant and keep that in the garage, when it is time to change the fluid out, just do the research then, find out what company makes a clone of it, and use that when flushing it.
