how much transmission fluid do I need for fluid change

Automatic or manual transmission?

If it is a manual 5 speed the link should help. Also you have a 2.3 litre not a 2.4.....http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/223815- changing-fluid-in-m5od-5-speed-manual-transmission.html

http://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/catalog/owner_guides/97ranog1e.pdf - Page364 Both manual and automatic use MERCON ATF 4X2 - 9.5 quarts and 4X4 - 9.8 quarts. But that is total capacity. It will never need that much to re-fill for a change. And I agree with Bob, it's a 2.3L

Probably 4 or 5 quarts in an automatic dropping the pan only. It is likely not a 4x4 as they were V-6 only.

Next question........

And the answer is.....

Have much oil go in a manual transmission on a 1994 Mazda B2300

What brand transmission 1991 ranger

Actually Bob that's false the 2.3l did come with the 4x4 option but there's not very many

my 2.8 ranger been sitting for 2 years, it is dry in tans fluid. put 2 quarts and still stickking gears. how much does it need before it runs normal
