So i had to have the ecoboost in my 2014 F150 replaced. They put in “Maxlife 50/50 Antifreeze” according to the invoice and some random thermostat. Well i noticed after getting the truck back that it was running hot so i called and they said they would replace the t-stat with a motorcraft.
Well i get it back yesterday and its still running hot so i drain the coolant and pop the thermostat out. Its a Motorad, not a Motorcraft.
Now the issue. I have some concentrated Motorcraft yellow coolant but I noticed it not the same color as what came out of the truck, which is when i checked the invoice. This is how the two look side by side(Motorcraft on the left):
How worried should I be about mixing the two? Anyone know what Valvoline coolant this might be? Its more yellow or gold colored than the Motorcraft stuff. Maybe G-05?
