Default Help please - Motorcraft concentrate coolant

Need to top up coolant in my falcon fg xr6, have motorcraft concentrate coolant green 5l. What is the best coolant to water ratio? I’ve been told to do 1 part coolant 2 parts demineralised water or would you do 50:50?
Thank you for your replays!

Personally I use concentrate with two parts distilled water. After twenty years I have several cars with cooling systems still in good condition from this ratio.

I don't recall the ratio off the top of my head and I don't have access to my booklet at the moment, but the ratio for your Falcon is specified with in the Fluid Specification section in
the Customer Assistance, Warranty and Service Guide, if you still have that available?
