With the recent stumbling from our Explorer, I decided to check the transmission fluid to rule that out before buying new coil packs. With the engine hot (just below about halfway on the temperature gauge when I started checking) my transmission fluid reads about 1/8" below the hatch area on the dipstick.
How much fluid would likely get that to the correct level? Would a single bottle of Mercon SP be enough? This is for the V8 with the 6R60 transmission.
I assume if it is slightly low, that it would cause slipping in the transmission.
Thanks.
