Should you put antifreeze or water in your car?

Usually a 50 / 50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water for year round use to provide corrosion protection , freeze and boil over protection . In colder climates , Ford states not to exceed 60 % antifreeze . The corrosion protection " portion " of the antifreeze does wear out so follow the suggested change intervals for the type of antifreeze that is required for your vehicle

What is the coolant ratio needed in a 98 dodge neon?

The ratio does not change from car to car, it is always 50/50 water and anti freeze. The above answer is exactly correct, except be sure and use Distilled Water and not tap water. Do not change this mix beyond 55% Antifreeze & 45% Water. Doing so will actually raise the freezing point and lower the boiling point. Beyond this point the more antifreeze you add the less protection you have.
