Added a little of Gold Motorcraft coolant instead of Yellow.

I found the coolant level was slightly below the minimum and added a little of this coolant: Gold, WSS-M97B51-A1. But I figured out the recommended one is this one: Yellow, WSS-M97B57-A2. Should I flush out everything, or it's ok? Motorcraft says don't mix it.

I'd flush it out. Those two aren't compatible

A tiny amount of gold probably wont hurt anything. If you haven't driven it, just get something to suck the coolant out of the reservoir and fill it back up with yellow.

Yeah,not sure why but sometimes read “could cause cavitation” etc. Prolly wouldnt but my ocd would force me to do a flush. Lol

I did. So I think it's mixed.

Yeah, probably just in case. The last time I changed the coolant was like 20 years ago and when no one cared about the color

Probably still perfectly fine, I doubt it's enough to make a difference. But its up to you.

I doubt too but every time I read a warning on manuals it makes me worried
