You can do a lot better than Ford fluid. Valvoline, Castrol, and
several other common, over-the-counter brands have products that
outperform the Ford stuff, and at comparable prices. Motul also has
some fluids you may want to check into, but I find them difficult to
source, so I just stick with Valvoline Synpower, personally.

Nah. I'd do a little more research before stopping at a Ford parts
counter.

Nothin' wrong with that. It is a DIY job, but if you don't feel secure,
DON'T TRY IT. :)

Neat. I sincerely doubt that you'll notice anything except de-
uglified firewall connector. :)
