    25. NOTE: Use the following guidelines for the in-line transmission fluid filter:
    • If the transmission was overhauled and the vehicle was equipped with an in-line fluid filter, install a new in-line fluid filter.
    • If the transmission was overhauled and the vehicle was not equipped with an in-line fluid filter, install a new in-line fluid filter kit.
    • If the transmission is being installed for a non-internal repair, do not install an in-line filter or filter kit.
    • If installing a new or Ford-authorized remanufactured transmission, install the in-line transmission fluid filter that is supplied.
  25. Install a new in-line transmission filter or a filter kit. For additional information, refer to TRANSMISSION FLUID IN-LINE FILTER .
  26. Install the transfer case. For additional information, refer to TRANSFER CASE - AUTOMATIC SHIFT .
    27. NOTE: When the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, some abnormal drive symptoms can occur while the vehicle relearns its adaptive strategy. The customer needs to be notified that they may experience slightly different upshifts (either soft or firm) and this is a temporary condition that will eventually return to normal operating condition.
  27. Connect the battery ground cable. For additional information, refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND CABLES .
    28. CAUTION: The use of any other fluids can result in incorrect operation of the transmission or transmission failure.
  28. Fill the transmission with clean automatic transmission fluid through the fluid filler tube. For additional information, refer to TRANSMISSION FLUID DRAIN AND REFILL .
  29. Start the engine. Move the transmission range selector lever through all the gear ranges, checking for engagements.
  30. With the engine running and the transmission at normal operating temperature 66-77°C (150-170°F), check and adjust the transmission fluid level and check for any leaks. If fluid is needed, add fluid in increments of 0.24-liter (0.5-pint) until the correct level is achieved (fluid should be in the crosshatched area of the fluid level indicator.)
