Do Not attempt to flush the remote filter housing because of the internal orifice. Figure 5 Remote Transmission Filter This transmission is equipped with a remote fluid filter, as shown in Figure 5. This filter passes ten percent of the transmission fluid from the transmission through a small orifice into a servicable screw-on filter element. The filtered fluid is then directed back into the rear lube circuit through the large opening in the remote filter manifold. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SERVICE GROUP Fluid Requirements Mercon®SP The new Ford SRI1OW "TorgShift" transmission also uses a new transmission fluid called Mercon®SP, and is not interchangeable with Mercon® or Mercon®V, The use of any other transmission fluid than Mercon®SP, can result in the transmission failing to operate in a normal manner and/or transmission failure. Ford recommends the transmission fluid and bottom pan filter be changed every 48,000 km (30,000 miles) regardless of normal orspecial operating conditions.
