How do you know it didn't freeze, just not enough to break the container it was in? Did you actually poor it out to see if it was froze, or even chunky or slushy??
Concentrated antifreeze has a lower freezing point than water even if not mixed with water. I personally don't know at what temperature it would take for it to freeze solid.
Just about everywhere I go now, sells both straight and premixed antifreeze. I always by the straight and mix it myself. But I have found when I buy it, I have to look very close at the label to know I am buying the straight. You didn't buy some already mixed by mistake did you?
On another note, if you are like me, I store mixed antifreeze after I mix it in the very same containers I buy it in. I have been around it enough to know by how dark green it is wether it is mixed or not. You didn't by chance add the water to it 6, 8, 12 months ago and forgot that you already mixed it?
When I am changing antifreeze in a system, I might dump one gallon of water in, then one gallon of antifreeze in, and so on. But before the system is full, (less than a gallon and a half of being full), I switch to dumping it in already mixed. That is, if I am even on what I already dumped in. That way I stay right on my mixture in the system. Hence, that's why I end up with mixed antifreeze in a straight antifreeze container.

Today's Featured Article - Search For Spares - by Anthony West (UK). Following on from the aquisition of the old Fordson F, I was very much in need of spares. As a novice though I didn't appreciate the fact that there were so many Fordson tractors made, that all the other makes seem rare by comparison. As far as I was aware a fordson was a fordson and it was only through trial an
