Ford Repair: Transmission lines removal, taurus 3, ford taurus


Question
I have a 1993 ford taurus 3.8L V6 automatic GL. I need to replace my radiator but am having one problem. How do I tell if I need a "disconnect tool" to remove the transmission lines from the radiator? Can I use a box wrench or do I need a special disconnect tool?

Answer
there is a special tool but if you can get a box wrench on it you can do it that way just spray wd40 or similiar on the line going into the fitting to lube the o-ring so it doesn't get cut-if not the parts house should have an inexpensive tool you slide around the line push into the fitting and pull the line out.
