trans fluid = motorcraft mercon V

anti freeze = any G05 approved fluid

spark plugs = if car is stock use motorcraft

brake fluid = any dot 3. the motorcraft is actually really good.

for the trans fluid change writeup look at the TCCOA webpage.

although its not in the manual, change out the trans filter.
