Been a while, but don't you Take the boot off inside to get to the shifter. It either has a locking ring that holds the shifter in or 4 bolts holding the shifter in. In either case, remove it and the shifter pulls out.
Trans has to come out the bottom.
There are 8 or 10 bolts (some are different lengths). Remove the gearshift lever and boot. Use a very long socket extension (2 ft) and large socket (17 or 19mm) to remove the 4 bolts at the top of the transmission. Once done the transmission will separate from the engine.
I'm trying to find the answer for that on a 1997 Toyota Camry.
If you mean lifting the engine as in removing the engine for repairs, the answer is no. You can support the transmission with a jack or blocks and remove the bolts holding the transmission and engine together. It usually is much more difficult to remove both components at the same time, due to the extra weight and trying to balance them without having to raise everything to an unsafe height. make sure you unbolt the torque converter from the flywheel. makes it that much more easier
have someone step on the brake.
u need to support the engine with a cherry picker and then remove the long motor mount bolts. after u have done that remove the engine mount brackets from the engine. then lower the engine down on to the front axle. this will give u plenty of room to reach over the head and remove the bell housing bolts. there are usually only two not three and sometimes they require a torx socket.
Might be the sifter cable binding. Could be transmission itself, but just check the cable by disconnecting it from the transmission and moving the shifter... If it moves then its trans, if not then just replace the cable.... My trans went out in my spirit and im trying to fight to get a trans for it, I have a guy who has one but he wants 150 and I cant afford it... But im trying.
Easy. The cap on top of the knob - with the gear arrangements on it (1,2,3,4,5,R) will pop off if you pry under it. There should be a machine screw holding the knob onto the shaft of the shifter - unscrew it, and since the knob is splined, pull the knob straight up and off. It might take a little forcing. That's all there is to it! -if you are also trying to remove the entire shifter (shaft) there is one screw at the bottom of the shaft right next to the transmission that must come out, then the shaft slides right up and off. i had to do this when dropping the tranny, in order to replace my clutch.
I'm trying to find where the dip stick for transmission fluid on a 1997 Ford aspire is located
Are you trying to disable the 106 speed limit or change what is called the Vehicle Speed Sensor? If its just switching the VSS, you have to remove the air intake, then it is the plug on top of the Transmission... Check out more info here Http://www.teamzx2.com
What exactly are you trying to replace? The crossmember the transmission sits on? I have an 87, and it has a cross member under the transfer case, while the transmission just bolts to the back of the engine. If you have a 2WD model, maybe it goes under the transmission, since there's no transfer case? Anyhow, it's a simple bolt-on part... you'll need a transmission jack to hold up the transmission while you remove the cross member, and you simply unbolt it.
That transmission is supposed to be service by a drain plug like you have on your motor. it's on the bottom of the transmission. as for the filte, it's located INSIDE of the transmission. the only way to remove the filter on a CD4E transmission is to physically remove the transmisssion from the vehicle and take it apart. Ford does not provide a procedure to service the transmission filter seperately from the transmission overhaul.
