A little too much won't hurt. It might froth a bit. A lot too much will come out the dipstick hole. Best to use a syphon hose like you can get at the auto parts store with a squeezy bulb and put it down the dipstick tube and draw some out to the right level. Always check it warm, running, in park after shifting slowly through all the gears.

What happens when too much transmission fluid is put into a 2002 Lincoln LS V8?

Changing the transmission fluid in your LS should be performed by a qualified service technician. There is a fairly comprehensive procedure for servicing the transmission and it requires that the fluid be checked hot and cold. Too much fluid in your transmission will cause it to jerk when putting in and out of gear, the shifts will be choppy and it may even feel like its slipping, and finally there is an overflow valve that will cause the excess transmission fluid to leak out and onto the floor beneath the transmission. A qualified service technician will know how much fluid is enough and how to get it out.
