Detailed Description

Pronto PTK1281 is a transmission filter kit for service on select Ford Explorer, Ford Explorer Sport Trac, Mercury Mountaineer, and Lincoln Aviator models.

This part cross-references ATP B-212 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Transmission fluid leaks at the pan gasket sealing surface
• Restricted fluid flow caused by a worn or contaminated filter
• Service issues during routine automatic transmission maintenance
• Fitment concerns on Ford Explorer, Mercury Mountaineer, and Lincoln Aviator applications
• Replacement needs for a transmission filter kit with the correct bolt-hole pattern

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the transmission service application by year, make, and model before installation. Match the 16-bolt-hole pattern and gasket shape to the removed components, and inspect the pan sealing surface for debris or damage before reassembly. Clean mating surfaces thoroughly to support proper sealing on Ford Explorer, Explorer Sport Trac, Mountaineer, and Aviator service jobs.
