Getting ready to flush my transmissions in my 98 E350. Is Valvoline Maxlife okay for 4EOD transmission?

i plan on flushing through the transmission lines listed by Mark Kovalsky I the tech folder.

Thanks!

 

I ordered a 6 gallon bag in a box of the correct Motorcraft Mercon V.

The larger the container, the cheaper it usually is.
The 6 gallon bag (24 quarts) was cheaper including shipping than buying 16 quart bottles at retail.
Either order from Rock Auto or see if your local auto parts store will special order you a bag.

I found the link for Mercon V and will order 6 gallons for $54! Smoking hot deal.

 

Great price for sure--thanks for the link Sam I am!

I've done two full fluid flushes from my 4R70W each time buying the one quart bottles from the local dealership. Oddly enough they were cheaper per quart than any other seller I could find locally.

At the time I did ask around about larger containers but no one seemed to know of such a thing---even the 4 or 5 quart jugs would have been better than 24 single quart bottles. Recently I did find the Motorcraft p/n as shown above but my dealership said it was no longer available. Could be there's more profit-per-unit to them selling one quart at a time.

RockAuto's price even with $12 FedEx Ground shipping is quite a savings from the single quart price with no shipping local pick-up.
Good advice, Reps sent!

 

I am ordering the bag in a box of Merton v. Thanks for the link. I cannot sleep at night thinking about putting in Maxlife ATF unless I am 100% confident

 

The price went up to $76 today! I think the $54 may have been a misentry.

 

It could be a mistaken price but that's still a good deal.
