Been a while...but just looked it up on AutoZone's website and part # appears to be 2692DL or 34980.

Yeah, probably so. Though I didn't show me doing it I showed a before and after with a pretty thorough explanation.

03-07 is all the 1st generation... I'd assume same. If not, similar at least.

Thank you

Few inches not the whole space.

I sold the vehicle recently, but I guess it could be possible you have a swapped transmission. You said you can't find the fill bolt...no worries. Typical American transmission. Drain through the drain bolt and then refill through the shifter. There's a video on my channel of me doing the transmission fluid on my 03 Cobra, obviously not the same fluid and amount but for the process of filling from the shifter.

@@ikramnanlawala4843 Thank you for your response. After spending an hour under the transmission I finally understand why my transmission looks so much different. My transmission is AUTOMATIC. All the forums and videos I have seen are people servicing a manual transmission. Unknown to me, the automatic transmission in the Fiat 2000 is completely different when it comes to the fill plug. There is a large metal cylindrical piece that unscrews from the transmission on the automatic transmission. You have to remove this cylindrical piece in order to get to the drain plug. This cylindrical piece is also connected to a transmission line that looks just like a brake line. The transmission started to leak as soon as I unscrewed the cylindrical piece. The drain plug requires a internal square socket which I don't have! So I am going to go to a store because the square hole is smaller than a 1/2 driver but larger than a 1/4 driver. The manual transmission requires GL-1 gear Oil in the transmission while the automatic transmission requires 3 Liters of Dexron Automatic Transmission Fluid.

If needed yes. I checked the gap on all of them before this and made sure they were where they should be.

Could be a bad alternator, could be a bad battery/old battery, could just be as little as the battery terminals having a lot of corrosion or not making great contact. Hard to say without checking.

Pain in the ass, but big money savings.

I appreciate that bit of info...I've sold the car since.

Great info; thank you, I wondered what that was for. 🙂

Not nearly enough room under there for that!

@@ikramnanlawala4843 I squeezed it all in using a short tube added to the can's filler neck.

They don't actually fall that short on the front frame rails...you may have gotten a defective set or they've been redesigned. All subframe connectors for the sn95 Mustangs have the angled section where the seat pan is. I never put a stand there anyway. The vehicle actually feels a lot more stiff after this install so I'm happy.

@@ikramnanlawala4843 i got mine 2 years ago and there have been no design changes since, the set is not defective, stifflers has pictures on their website of them installed and you can clearly see how they come up short on the front rails. Again, next time you have the car in the air, you'll know what I mean. I'm not referring to just that angled section, im referring to the exposed factory rail a good 3 inches in front of it. These arent "full length"

Glad I could help, thank you!

That's awesome, I'm glad I was able to help. That's the goal behind these videos!

If one or more of your spark plugs are bad it could cause a rough idle, but depending on how bad I'm sure it could cause the vehicle to die or not even start. Best to just change them per the vehicle manufacturer recommendation. I hope this answers you question.

On this vehicle cylinder 4 should be the one closest to the driver side.

I can't say for sure in other people's cases but in my case....no.

One of my first videos man, cut me some slack. Lol 😂😂😂

Lol. I call it the Fiata.

@@ikramnanlawala4843 ...The new Fiat, definitely, lol

If an auto parts store doesn't have it, your best option is calling a Cadillac dealership and asking the parts department if they have one or if they can source one out in the country.

Thank you!

So normally I prefer concentrate and distilled in equal parts but I was at a buddies house doing this and had to ask my dad to go and get the coolant for me (on his motorcycle) so I just used 50/50. Yes to Dexcool...that's what these cars like.

Yes, I have another video showing that.

Thank you! Glad it was helpful.

Black like is a vacuum line. You kinda can hear the air escape when I disconnect it. That's just the way they ran it for convenience. Then T hose, if you are referring to the hose that connects to the thermostat, yes. It's the one I disconnected on the driver side of the engine. It leads into there.

Sorry for replying so late to this, for some reason I'm just now seeing this. NGK and many other brands recommend against using any type of grease or anti-seize...I didn't use any on this vehicle, however, so many people prefer using anti-seize. Your call type of situation. I do use it for my 03 Cobra.

There's really no good dedicated jack points on these cars. On the front of any vehicle I usually use the k-member. On the back of this car you could use the axles or the trail arms.

@@ikramnanlawala4843 If you use the trailing arms, they WILL bend.

I appreciate the clarification, now I know who to be mad at when I have to work on things.

That's what's up man. These things are amazing. I'm located in Northern IL. How about you?

@@ikramnanlawala4843 CA Los Angeles I also have 89 notchback project too

I did the research so long ago I don't remember the details off of the top of my head. I was very particular and so I know everything I used is up to spec for the car. It may be in the head but I feel that the vehicle feels a bit better now, but also could just be the fact that all of the fluids are fresh.

@@ikramnanlawala4843 I spoke to the Valvoline technical support and they said the only product that can be used in the fiat transmission (GL-1) is valvoline synchromesh. I also reviewed the tech document and it states safe with yellow metals. The GL-5 will attack the copper (yellow metal) in your transmission.

@@vanover69 I'll have to look into it some more. In most of Fiat forums everyone seems to be using 80w90 gear oil or 20w50 motor oil. Hard to find the original GL-1 gear oil for these cars.

I did find GL-1 at NAPA…also found the valvoline synchromesh on Amazon which I’m still researching. Let me know what you find. I did speak to chevon tech support regarding using a 15w40 motor oil and although the viscosity are very similar they wouldn’t recommend using it

@@vanover69 I will post any updates if I feel the vehicle is suffering or if the next time I drain it there's any weird substance in it. This seems to be what most people are using. I wasn't able to buy anything in stores in my area nor was I able to find anything online other than a barrel.

I think for all of the other videos I made where I swapped the bulbs to LED I did a comparison but forgot to for these. It's way way way brighter and clearer. I did not need an adapter, bulbs should plug right in no problem. Perhaps the set you ordered doesn't match.

@@ikramnanlawala4843 I just ordered new ones on Amazon, I chalked it up as eBay sold me something that don't fit. I figured you needed an adapter or something but you can direct fit them.

Awesome. Let me know how the new ones work out.
