should tell you on the bottle how many parts coolant/water.
way i found a leak was to top the car up, turn on the car and wait for the system to become fully pressurised. leak should show up under the car.

when i did mine i just disconected the exit pipe from the radiator and let it all drain out, then i flushed the system through by puting a hose pipe into the expansion tank and running some water through until it came out pretty much clean
