Hey Gang,
Ok so I want to run AMSOIL in my 99 SE. So I drop them a line asking which kit, and if the ford friction modifier can be used with their syn ATF. This is what I get...
^^^Start^^^
The correct AMSOIL dual remote bypass kit for this vehicle is the BMK13. It comes complete except for the filters themselves. Because of the broad use of this kit we recommend filters based on the capacity of the engine's oil sump. For this size capacity we recommend our AMSOIL SDF15 full flow filter and the BE90 bypass filter.
We are not familiar with any friction modifier additives required by Ford for the Contour. If this is true there will be a Technical Service Bulletin on file at the dealership. Our AMSOIL Synthetic Universal Automatic Transmission Fluid is definitely recommended for the Contour, but we can't really recommend the use of an additive (even Ford's) without knowing what it is supposed to do.
Our manuals show the XT-M5-QS part number to only be used on the Ford Focus. We have no comparable product.
^^^End^^^
So are they not in the know? Or am I misreading something off the FAQ in the trouble shifting while cold topic?
Any help would be great, plus any comments on those using AMSOIL now.
Thanks,
Ray
