I need step by step procedure on how to change the fluid in the c6 transmission in my 1974 f100 with a 460 big block. please be detailed as much as possible, this is my first rodeo with this sort of thing.Fluid change in my ford c6 tran?
Jack the truck up and place it on stands. Put a drain pan under the transmission and slowly loosen the bolts until fluid starts coming out. You can remove some of the bolts while it is draining but leave a couple in it until most of the fluid is out. when the fluid is out drop the pan the rest of the way. If you are changing the filter look closely at the old one and you will see the bolts holding it on. Take them out and watch out for a little more fluid to come out. Replace the new filter just like the old one came out. Put the new gasket on the pan and install the bolts. If you want to drain the torque converter there should be a plug on the front of the converter. You have to remove the front cover at the tranmission and motor to get to it. Once again place the pan under it and loosen the plug to drain it. You may have to turn the motor over by hand to find the plug but there should be one on that model. When you go to refill it the transmission will hold 10-12 quarts of fluid. This is a little long but I think you can get the job done . Good luck
