Checking and adding manual transmission fluid (if equipped)

1. Clean the filler plug. It is located
on the passenger side of the
transmission.

2. Remove the filler plug and inspect
the fluid level.

3. For vehicles equipped with a V6 engine, the correct manual
transmission fill level is at the lower edge of the filler hole. For vehicles
equipped with a V8 engine, the correct manual transmission fill level is
1/2 inch (1.3 cm) below the edge of the filler hole.

4. Add enough fluid through the filler opening to bring the fluid up to
the recommended levels.

5. Install and tighten the fill plug securely.

Use only fluid that meets Ford specifications. Refer to the technical
specifications chart in the Capacities and Specifications chapter.

BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID CHECK

Brake and clutch (if equipped) systems are supplied from the same
reservoir.

Fluid levels between the MIN and MAX lines are within the normal
operating range; there is no need to add fluid. If the fluid levels are
outside of the normal operating range, the performance of the system
could be compromised; seek service from your authorized dealer
immediately.

POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK

Your vehicle is equipped with an electric power steering (EPS) system.
There is no fluid reservoir to check or fill.

FUEL FILTER

Your vehicle is equipped with a lifetime fuel filter that is integrated with
the fuel tank. Regular maintenance or replacement is not needed.

For Shelby fuel filter requirements, see the Shelby GT500 Supplement.
