Typically how much oil is drained for a E4OD trans, (including what can be drained from the TC, cooler and lines). I need to do a fluid /filter swap this weekend, and need a idea of approx. how much ATF to pick up..13 qt's...14qts... 16qts?

You might want to pick up a few extra qts (about 2-3) if you want to flush it out. When I flushed the 99 truck out, the tranny fluid was pretty Red, so it was hard to tell old fluid from new. But on one of my other vehicles, there was a significant color difference. ( a bit embarrising, but tranny is strong at over 130K). After draining, pan, cooler, and torque converter, I refilled with new ATF. Disconnected the return line from the cooler into a 5 gallon container, and ran the engine in short bursts to fill the converter, topping off the ATF, until nice shiny red ATF came out. I used Mobil 1. -john Erik Marquez wrote: > For those of you that do your own work..

The rear bumper is a good place to attach a long antenna, such as cb or shortwave. About where to mount an antenna if you can't mount on in the center, a mag mount would probally be the next best solution. I'm using a mag mount for my ham radio antenna currently(a hole in the roof would make garage parking difficult. On Thu, 13 Apr 2000, Steve J.

I had previously changed to synthetic at around 9K so i saw no need to completely drain or flush. Should i be worried about a slight bit of metal sludge around drain hole inside or is this normal? I wiped it clean and buttoned it back up. BTW: watch out for fluid when removing filter, i took a nice arm bath.

Thanks in advance ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2000 09:43:49 -0700 From: johny Subject: Re: E4OD fluid change If this is for your 4R100, that seems real low. Did you drain the Torque converter? About sludge, there was about a tablespoon full or so. This seems to be normal from what i've read on www.ford -diesel.  com a long time back. As long as there's no "chunky" parts, that should be normal. On my bronco II that has 130K+ on it's had sludge the 3 or so time's I've changed it. The amount seems to decrease over time. Having done the "arm bath" thing, i've learned to loosen all bolts, then start removing the bolts from the rear to the front. This slowly lets fluid drain into a pan. By the time you get to the last set of bolts, the pan is pretty managable. Works well whether you have a drain plug or not. My BII has the A4LD which has neither a drain plug for the pan or the Torque converter. To Dean - about which line is the return line from the cooler? I don't remember. I disconnected the line from the cooler, and bumped the engine. The one that spewed ATF was the return line :-). I attached a line to whichever line I removed, and directed it to a 5 gallon can. Reduced the amount of fluid being spilled on the floor. I actually had a long enough line to direct to the can, so I didn't have to pretend I was the Exxon Valdez.

It is a Crew Cab, SB, 4x2. The p/n's for the front are F81Z-16A550-AA/GA; rear's are F81Z-16A550-BA/HA. These are black, molded, with the Ford emblem embossed on the bottom (but hardly noticeable).
