My EB was built in Feb 2020. The MotorCraft coolant chart shows orange coolant used before 01/02/2020 and after that they changed to yellow coolant. So why is my EB filled with green coolant? The manual shows that it takes the orange coolant.
I don't need any now but always want to be prepared if the need arises.

This is normal, the "Yellow" coolant actually looks like a bright green when it's in the overflow tank. The color thing Ford does is misleading at times. I guess they wanted to differentiate it between the old "Gold" formula and generic green ones that aren't compatible.

Thanks Ryan. That is very misleading.
