O.T. 1994 Ford F-150 radiator, trans. question

Todd in NC · Aug 9, 2012

The radiator in my truck took a horrendous dump today. I've got a new one to go in it, but I was wondering how much transmission fluid I'm going to lose. It's got an E4OD transmission. I've replaced radiators before in vehicles with manual transmissions, but this is my first automatic. Thanks in advance, Todd.

Maybe a pint.

Assuming the radiator trans cooler didn't leak when the coolant came out, the sytem will loose a cupmor so when changed. A couple pair of vise grips or C clamps used to (gently) pinch the hoses, even less will run out. Jim

94 f- 150 doesn't have any hoses. they are steel lines.

Hope you get the connectors apart without damage! You will lose less than a quart of oil.

Used to have good luck cutting lines and reconnecting with hoses but clamps you buy are all junk unless you find some older ones. Dave
