read the back of the coolant....if you need to mix it the directions will be on the back sometimes its a 50/50 mix and some are a 70/30 mix, if its pre-mixed then just dump it in and burp the system.

A completely empty system would require 11.8 qt (US) But I would say 2 gallons would do it unless your draining the block.
