How do you change a transmission filter on a 1995 Ford Taurus Gl with a 3.0 V6?
drain the trans fluid, remove the pan on the bottom of the trans, remove and replace filter, replace pan, etc.
You have to remove the transmission pan. The filter is inside.
Take off transmission oil pan. Try not to spill too much fluid. Dump fluid into pan and take to auto parts store for recycling. Remove old filter and o-ring. Insert new filter with o-ring. Replace pan. If it has a cork gasket, replace it. Otherwise, the rubber gaskets are made to be re-useable. Do NOT use any sealant on the gasket. Add new Mercon fluid. Run through the gears and then put in park and check fluid level while idling in park, on a level surface.
