Just FYI, I accidently unscrewed the transmission drain plug instead of the oil plug and I let out about 2-3 quarts before my dumba** realized that it was the wrong one. Anyway to make a long story short, I finished changing the oil and I went to go buy the Mercon SP that is recommend by ford so I could refill what I drained. To my suprise nobody carried that type of ATF fluid. So I had to bite the bullet and go to Ford for it, $7.00 a quart... WTF.... I guess its only made for the Ford Torque Shift tranny. Alot of the aftermarket stores didn't even know that Mercon SP exists... Well FYI, just incase you didn't know....
