When I'm driving, sometimes it wont go into gear and I have to put it back into neutral and try it again. Is this normal or is there anything I can do to stop that from happening. Thanks

The bleeder screw is on top of the bell housing. It helps to remove the air intake tube for access. Bleeding is similar to bleeding brakes. Have an assistant pump the pedal several times and hold the pedal down while you open the bleeder. Close the bleeder immediately after the fluid spurt, and then repeat a few times. I'm not sure, but I think it takes an 8mm wrench. Jim Johnson 98 SVT 03 Escape Limited

Make the Stealership fix it. It should have been done right to begin with. -- 1999 SVT #220 -- In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.
