Aprox 4 pints in the rear differential.
In a 1997 Ford Aerostar ( REAR differential ) With the 7.5 " ring gear ( 3.5 U.S. pints ) With the 8.8 " ring gear ( 5.0 ) * traction lok , add 4 ounces of friction modifier
19.0 gallons , according to the Owner Guide
from what I gathered, the hold button keeps it in a certain gear while cruising on the freeway, so it doesnt always shift. I dont know what use that will be.
Put the car into 1st gear and hold the revs at around 3.5k. Drop the clutch and then look to see whether both or just one wheel spins
it keeps the gear still on its current gear
it allows you to hold a particular gear thereby avoiding any unwanted gear changes
holds it in that perticular gear.

If it's a single piece driveshaft, remove the 4 bolts that hold the U joints to the differential pinion gear. If it's a 2 piece driveshaft, remove the 2 bolts that hold the center carrier bearing to the truck frame first.
Push down the red R button, hold in the left brake and shift down beyond neutral gear. At least hat's how its done on a 2004 anyway.
It's a switch near the gearstick, which when pressed, turns on an amber warning light on the dashboard. The function of it is to hold you in a particular gear - for going downhill and such. To get rid of it you just need to flip the switch.
