Material
NOTE: Use these guidelines for installing the transmission fluid in-line filter.
^
If the transmission was overhauled and the vehicle was equipped with an in-line fluid filter, install a new in-line fluid filter.
^
If the transmission was overhauled and the vehicle was not equipped with an in-line fluid filter, install a new in-line fluid filter kit.
^
If the transmission is being installed for a non-internal repair, do not install an in-line filter or filter kit.
^
If installing a new or a Ford-authorized remanufactured transmission, install the in-line transmission fluid filter that is supplied.
1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to Maintenance/Service and Repair.
2. Remove the section of the rubber hose as illustrated.
3. CAUTION: The filter has a bypass valve in it. The red arrow on the filter indicates the direction of fluid flow through the filter. The filter must
be installed in the fluid cooler return line with the red arrow on the filter pointing away from the transmission fluid cooler and toward the
transmission (the return line has fluid coming out of the cooler going to the transmission). If the fluid filter is not installed correctly, it will cause
internal transmission damage.
CAUTION: Do not install any rubber hoses or steel tubing with a bend entering the filter greater than 60 degrees.
Install the filter and tighten the clamps.
