T-5, How Much Fluid

429mustang · 10-04-2002, 11:51 AM

What kind/how much fluid will I need after I drain my trans, i need to take it out to put in a clutch, and the levels probably low, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to change it. How much would a new real seal for the trans cost, are the easy to put in?

Go ahead and purchase 3 qts. - you'll use about 2.5. You'll know it's full when it starts to come out the top of the fill hole.

As for brand, I used Amsoil ATF in my old T-5 and GM Snycomesh in my Tremec.
