Factory specs recommends Motorcraft ethylene glycol (the green antifreeze) part no. ESE-M97B44-A but theres no reason you have to stick to ford branded antifreeze. Any brand of ethylene glycol will work as its all the same. Just make sure its ethylene glycol (green) and not a synthetic blend like dex-cool or anything.

If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
