And advice before I dive into the EB V-8? Valve cover gasket seems to be seeping near the firewall. Going to O'Reilly to get some parts.

Any advice? Easy?
 






You'll have to remove the upper intake. There is a hidden bolt under the "5.0L V8" badge. Not a particularly difficult job.

ahhhh yes, this is why I have a tenant who gets cheaper rent...."Let him do it!"
I found the trans fluid BLACK, this morning it all got dumped into a container, replaced the trans fluid. I think I only get 1/2 of the fluid not all of it.

But it got Mercon 4 synthetic fluid in it now
