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.

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.
