This exact problem was making me crazy. I was sure I was into another transmission. It was simple: a new set of plugs. Seriously, I had an error message for a coil, but it was fine. The plugs were totally messed up. They are wicked hard to remove once they are this old and will separate. You'll need a special Ford tool to remove the part that separates. It's $120, and trust me you'll need it. IT'S NOT THE TRANNY! IT'S A STUPID SPARK PLUG SHORT!
Good luck.

Ford F150 5 speed tranny M5R2 Actually built by Mazada or toyota and is a light duty transmission used in the f150 and t-bird, and mustangs. From 1992 to current. The M5R2 is a top loader transmission and depending the application depends upon the location of the shifter housing. F150 is a true top loader as compared to the stang, bird or mazada trucks. The shifter is located to the back of the tranny tail housing. Hope this helps.
Thanks,
The problems we are facing now is when we shift the truck into any position. PRND21, they all go forward. Surprisingly when you get in nuetral, the truck "smooths out". There is no neutral or reverse, any ideas???
Yes, we checked the transmission fluid.
Thanks

Oddly enough, if I accelerate up the same hill by giving it more gas it does not seem to act up...
when I'm driving my pick up and I press the throttle fully to pass another car the engine increased approximately to 4500 RPM, the speed of my truck increases but will not release the passing gear or shift until I back out of the throttle. Some solution?
it's ok for a couple of days. Mine is stick shift and sometimes when shifting to reverse, makes a noise like when you have the motor going and try to start it by mistake.
Any ideas Any body?
