I recently bought an '88 F250, possibly 7.3 and C6. PO was selling because "Something wrong with transmission".
Got the truck home on a flatbed, went looking for tranny dipstick, which does not seem to exist on this truck.
Started thinking, dipstick and tube fell off, fluid ran out, and tranny no go no mo'.
But, this is first experience with F250 4WD, maybe I just don't know where to look, so I got a flashlight, stood on a paint bucket, and searched, but no joy. Googled for it, was told it is on driver side of engine, in front of fire wall between engine and fender well. Went and looked some more. It's not.
Can I assume the thing is just gone, or is there someplace I don't know about to check tranny fluid in '88 F250?
