fluid

Iv'e been having a small leak from the tranny oil cooler at the front of the truck ('06 V6 xlt). The leak appears on both fittings coming out of the oil cooler attached to the bottom of the radiator. I think it's coming from where the fluid line goes into the fitting, and not from where the...

Hey guys I brought my truck (01 sport trac, 120,000 miles) into the shop to have the fluid and filter changed. The tranny fluid was black and my mechanic said not to change it because the clutch could start slipping with new fluid. His explanation was that the black dirty trans fluid was built...

My 98 explorer limited 5.0L v8 is leaking a clear orderless liquid (guessing H20). It is dripping down from the back side of the front right wheel well. I don't think it is windshield wiper fluid or radiator coolant as those both are colored and have some scent to them. I also do not think it is...

I just bought this old girl. Runs like a top but the windshield washer motor doesn't work. Pulled the plug and checked the voltage and it was only about 4 volts. What;s with that? I was going to put 12 volts to the motor to see if it was any good, nut decided I'd check with you people first. Is...

I have a 2002 Explorer XLS 4.0L V6. I bought the car used in November 2007 with 73,000 miles on it. It currently has 90,000 miles. I have no idea if the transmission fluid was ever changed before I bought it, and I have not changed it since I bought it. I know it "should" be changed at 90,000...

I watched the video on how to change differential fluid, but the part that got only momentary mention was adding the new fluid. I have a 2002 AWD Mountaineer. It appears the fill plug is right above the larger drain plug. Having the spare tire in the way doesn't help. What's the best trick...

I'm installing a new 4r55e into my '97 explorer. Tranny tech told me that it should take up to 11-12 qts of atf. He said to not to remove the TC and just install the tranny and put 5qts in the tranny and crank it up (he said this will fill the TC), then add as needed. I have since 5 1/2 more qts...
