You cannot determine the correct fluid without knowing the year and whether it has an automatic or (rarely) manual transmission. Even then, specifying the exact transmission (e.g., 4R70W, AODE) would be ideal for certainty.
To find the correct fluid, you should:
* Check your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source. It will specify the exact fluid type and recommended fluid change intervals.
* Look at the transmission dipstick (if equipped): Sometimes, the recommended fluid type is printed on the dipstick.
* Check your vehicle's identification number (VIN): A parts store or mechanic can use the VIN to determine the correct fluid.
* Consult a reputable parts store: Provide them with the year, make, model, and engine of your Lincoln Town Car. They can look up the correct fluid for you.
Do not attempt to guess. Using the wrong transmission fluid can severely damage your transmission.
