The 2000 F150 owners manual shows Motorcraft MERCON automatic Transmission Fluid in the 5 speed manual transmission ( YES - ATF ! )
stick
Broken shift linkage
on the trans shift linkage
On a 5-speed I'm pretty sure it is right next to where the shift tower gets bolted to the trans. It is a little ball that rides on the shifting rail. Should be pretty much the only sensor that is on the top center section of the trans.
There is nothing adjustable about a 5 speed trans.
No they did not produce a V6 stick shift. If you want a manual you have to motor swap down to the 4 cylinder motot
The speedometer signal comes from the ABS sensor on top of the rear axle. The trans also has speed sensors on it for trans shifting.
The vehicle speed signal comes from the abs sensor on top of the rear axle. (used for speedometer) The transmission output speed signal comes form the sensor on the driver side rear of the trans. ( used for shift timing only)
no there was never stick shift in a in the fwd 3.8 grand prix but there is a way to run a stick shift in the car without it being very costly......the chevy cavalier or pontiac sunfire manual 5 speed would work......of cross you will need to do some modification with the pcm but other than that it is a pretty simply procedure for any basic automotive tech.
you need a new transmission
Some GM automatic equipped vehicles have a sealed transmission with no dip stick. Look in your owner's manual or call a GM dealer to be sure.
