easy job. Just loosen pan bolts enough to let the fluid start draining from one end. As more drains, keep loosening the pan bolts till you can remove pan and finish draining what's left in the pan. At this time, most people would also change the transmission filter body: it's right on bottom of trans. when the pan is removed, easily accesible. Parts stores sell a kit with new filter and pan gasket included. Anyway, now you are ready to install new pan gasket. Clean gasket mating surfaces as clean as you possibly can. let no oil or fluid get back on there. Place gasket on (most don't recommend adding sealant or gasket compound). Put pan on with all bolts fingertight. Then starting from center outward, start tightening them down to torque specs-it'd be pretty light torque, like around 20 ft-lbs-might want to ask a ford mech. what torque specs are. When done, refill ****** and check for leaks after running car.
HI, the torque spec for the pan bolts is 14nm or 124 in lb. snug them down evenly it doesn't take much to over tighten these and strip out the threads.
I'm sending you the torque specifications for your main bearings and also your head bolts. I also sent you main bearing and cylinder head tightening sequence. I hope this will be useful
Main Bearings Torque specs. 40-43 Ft. Lbs.
Cylinder Head Torque specs. 56-60 Ft. Lbs.
