Is that the same cougar manual that has all the misprints and errors in it?


Yes it is true, ever heard of a Cougar-S? They were going to use a bigger and better engine in it, maybe it was the SVT engine , no wait I think it was supposed to be the 3.0.
Whatever. Anyway the manual actually had all the stats printed up with that information and they never made ANY of it. It was a mistake.
I've never said anything about the friction modifier yet but I wouldn't trust ANYTHING in those cougar manuals as there were too many discrepancies.
Don't believe it? Ask around.

BTW, there are many different friction modifiers but MTL and certain ATF's are designed with them in mind.
That is a big difference then adding something meant for a Gear Oil in a rear end to an ATF based lube.
I'm not saying it is wrong...yet. I'm just pointing out that this wouldn't be a good leg to argue from.
