Transmission Temperature Probe Placement

OK - I thought it would be as easy as my F150 - but as I'm uner the X looking for the diag port, I'm not really sure where it is. I think I found it right behind the shifter cable/mechanism, but I'm not sre.

Can anyone confirm or correct me on this?

It's on the driver's side of the trans, above the pan rail, in front of the shifter arm. It has a black hex head plug in it.

Yep, tht the one I thought.

When I take out, is it going to spew a lot of fluid at me?

When I removed the plug on my '01 F250, a few drops came out, nothing major.

Thanks - I'm gonna buy a qt of fluid just in case... plus it's not a bad idea to keep a little around any how,

Installing the probe tonight - wish my luck
