E4OD Dipstick!!!!!!!
OK.....please help...I've just been diagnosed with a chronic medical
condition and have limited movement in my arms & legs so it is
difficult for me to crawl around under this thing..
I was starting to winterize my "new-2-me" '91 4X2 F150 has a 5.8L with
the E4OD trans. and I CANNOT find the trans dipstick or tube.
I know this might sound stupid but...where is this thing supposed to be???
Found nothing in the Chilton manual...no suprise...and the local parts
store is useless...I NEED this truck for trips to the doctor for chemo
treatments.
ANY help will be greatly appreciated!!!!

If you any movement or reach issues, it will be a pain to get to. The trans. dipstick tube is bolted to the back of the passenger side cylinder head, and the dipstick itself should be visible right near the back of the valve cover.

Mkissing dipstick...
...THANKS you guys!!!
It aint there...my neighbor has a'96 with a similar setup so I'm gonna go
take a look at his and probably order one from the dealer.
With winter comming I cannot afford for this truck to fail. The ironic part is
that the trans and motor were replaced just before I bought it by a couple
of backyard maniac mechanics!!!
They did a fair job...just forgot to to tie up a few loose ends.
