coolant?

[psd_va]

ok im slightly confused and trying to celar it up. i have been noticing recently people talking about getting rid of the the gold coolant. i thought that we were suppose to be using the gold casue my truck had green in it and i thought we were wanted to use the gold so i flushed out the green for gold. did i casue any issues or what?

The Gold will cause the oil cooler to clog which restricts flow to the EGR cooler and blows the EGR cooler and/or head gaskets. Flush system with Restore and Restore Plus, refill system with a CAT certified ELC coolant with an EC-1 rating and distilled water.

The green you flushed would have been a much more severe problem, but the gold is still not correct. Ford will never admit it, but they alone with their poor coolant choice inflicted this massively bad reputation on a great engine.

This is what the Ford Gold will get you. Click on the radiator hose for full size pic.

Flushing coolant = Clogged oil cooler?
