So what ?? Since when was it gospel to run exactly 50/50 ??
Before premix, I always did it by color. If it started looking a little peek'ed, I'd add a little straight. Worked great for many years. Still does.

Congratulations on getting it running.
Hear is a tip on getting the coolant right. Find out what the capacity of your coolant system is. after you finish with the last flush fill it to 50% capacity with the un diluted coolant then fill the rest with distilled water. Now you have a 50-50 mix.

I don't go thru the figuring and mixing in the system. Do it 50/50 in the jugs and dump it in. Always have some on hand anyway.
When you pre mix you can't allow for any water in the system that you can't drain. Yes on a small coach you might get all the water out but on a larger coach like a diesel pusher you won't get all the water out of the heater lines.
