type "F" into a 4r100? oops

well I just realized today that I put 2 litres of type F atf into my powerstroke van trans after fixing a line leak. put it in over a month ago.


I did notice some slow "wake uptime' when its been cold last few weeks but its not burnt or anything.


should I rush out and do a complete trans service or should I wait and do the tran service at my next oil change?


it seems to pull trailer no problems and shift fine, but has hesitated when pulin gaway form a stop a few times.


I would hate to see the trans go because of this, rebuilt trans is worth more than the van now.


thanks for input.

i would drop it now. the fresh fluid and filter may get rid of the sluggish starting, or the trans may be on it 's last leg and die any day
