Actually, tail lights and brake lights all are working :-/
The temperature gauge, after about an hour of driving around (street driving, looking for places to move.. you get the idea) the meter sat on the white line on the left of hot.

It was barely out of the red, I started on my way home and got a check engine light until I turned it off and let it cool down some.
It was 98�º here but I've had the car since March or so and the days were much cooler then (around 80), still had the same temperature issue.
I'm running a 50/50 mix of coolant/antifreeze -- the $7 or so jug you'd find at autozone. Should I switch to straight up coolant until wintertime, or move to a 75/25 mix.. or is this more of a mechanical problem than coolant issue?
