I just had mine done in my 89. I watched the guy doit and he was having a tough time with it. He used just about the two bottles, eventually it started pouring out, he gave it a second then put the plug in when it was almost done draining.

Friction modifier is only available at a Ford dealer. If your using Royal Purple synthetics then you don't need it.
