where can i buy the Mercon V ATF at???

 

I got mine at my local Ford dealer, couldn't find any where else

 

along with the filter i guess 2 right? whats it motorcraft?

 

Yes got filter there to, $36.98 rather pricey I thought

 

I get my parts from my local Ford dealer.
Trans filter- $16.50
MerconV fluid- $3.00 a quart

 

Got all my stuff at advance auto. Filter and Valoline Mercon V fluid. I think the filter and 14 qts of fluid was about $65-70 bucks. I have had good luck with the fluid so far. Tranny is as smooth as silk.

 

Pennzoil, Mobil 1, and Ford all make a new Multi-vehicle ATF fluid that meets and exceeds all Mercon, Mercon V, and Mercon/Dexron III specifications. Takes all the guesswork out of fluid choice!

 

how many qrts to i need to get u think? 14...or do i need more?

 

Depends on how you do it. I have a drain plug in my torque converter so it held every qt that it was supposed to hold when full. I think that was either 14 or 16 qts. Its in the manual. The only thing that didn't get drained completely were the lines to the cooler and cooler.
