It would cost whatever a wrecked donor car would cost you to buy. Otherwise buying new parts would be cost prohibitive. The smart thing to do would be to sell the car you now have and then buy a Kia Spectra 5 speed.
Swapping a automatic to a 5 speed is a lot of work. You would have to change out all the gears and belts.
That would be a 4L80E Transmission.
The type should be engraved in the automatic transmission fluid dipstick . ( if you have the 5 speed manual transmission it would have Motorcraft MERCON automatic transmission fluid in it from the factory )
The VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) would be found on the right rear of automatic transmission or transfer case. If it is a standard it would be found on the left rear of the transmission.
That would depend on which transmission you have According to the 1999 Ford F-150 owners manual : The 4 R 70 W automatic transmission takes ( Motorcraft MERCON - V - automatic transmission fluid ) The 4 R 100 automatic transmission takes ( Motorcraft MERCON automatic transmission fluid ) The 5 speed manual transmission takes ( Motorcraft MERCON automatic transmission fluid ) If the automatic transmission has a dipstick check the handle or the dipstick , the type of transmission fluid should be indicated
would an automatic transmission car jerk when shifting after having had a transmission flush
No! You can replace it with a manual, but an A/T cannot be converted.
A bad first speed overrun clutch.
That would be a version of the A4LD automatic transmission
the speedometer wont work and quite likely the automatic transmission fluid or oil (manual trans) would leak out and the transmission would be ruined.
If you mean a standard (manual) transmission, you have two options. You can get a 6-speed automatic transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission. I as myself would take the 6-speed manual because it has better fuel economy and it is faster from 0 to 60 and the quarter mile.
I don't think so. The automatic transmission is controlled by engine speed, vehicle speed and throttle position. A large vacuum leak could effect throttle position, but it would cause other problems more noticable than the effect on transmission shifting. a vacuum leak mpuld not cause trasmission to slip but a band inside transmission would cause the problem
