Default Ooops . . . Wrong well.

OK, it was dark, I was tired and not paying attention, but it was really a stupid move. Really embarrassing.

I put windshield wiper fluid in the coolant well. Is this going to cause a problem or not?

I think if it's less than quart you should be okay, don't quote me but, if anything, you might just reduce the mix ratio of coolant to water...

That little I'd guess you'd be OK I'd test the fluid just to ensure the temp protection is OK
