Not really a porsche specific question, but just wondered if anyone had ever tried using one of these to check their ant-freeze strength.

Having only had new dealer serviced cars for the last few years I'm out of the habbit of checking this stuff.

I've got a similar one in my toolbox, follow the instructions the, balls in the tube float and it'll indicate the strength of your coolant. Very easy to use.
