Pure water does not have any anti corrosion or lubricant properties and should only be used in an emergency.

Always use antifreeze. Water does not have any water pump lubricants or anti corrosion properties, antifreeze coolant does.
It uses a 50/50 mix of water and antifreeze/coolant
Yes, but. Antifreeze is also a corrosion inhibitor. It protects the engine and head gasket from corrosion problems. It is far better, and safer to use a 50/50 antifreeze and water mix in the engine.
You want to use a 50/50 mixture of water and antifreeze, but use the manufacture recommended antifreeze, it comes straight anti freeze in which case you would mix a gallon of antifreeze to a gallon of water or you can buy a pre mixed container of antifreeze if your just trying to top off
A Blaster is air cooled, not water cooled. no antifreeze.
use half water half antifreeze to the fill level
Yes, you can use water as a temporary solution if you're low on antifreeze, but it’s not ideal. Water can help prevent the engine from overheating, but it doesn’t provide the same level of freeze protection or corrosion resistance as antifreeze. If you must use water, make sure to replace it with the proper antifreeze mixture as soon as possible to protect your engine in extreme temperatures.
distilled water is recommended
Hard water can cause antifreeze color to change due to mineral deposits and impurities from the water being mixed with the antifreeze. This can result in the antifreeze appearing darker or discolored. It is recommended to use distilled water when mixing antifreeze to avoid color changes and ensure optimal performance.
It will use normal antifreeze and it should be mixed 50/50 with water. It does not matter.
Refer to owners manual and if using water to dilute use distilled water
50 / 50 mix of antifreeze and preferably distilled water Ford states not to exceed 60 % antifreeze in cold climates and not to use less than 40 % antifreeze for corrosion protection
