Welcome....
1. Torqueflight 727
2. F Type works most of the time... But if it has already been upgraded It could use a different kind of fluid depending on what parts are used.
3. Might have a broken part inside the trans?
4. No Vacuum Modulator.... These use linkage on the L.H. side of the transmission that run up to and connect to the carburetor...

Those are really nice cars when they are fixed up...

Here are a couple vids for you get get some info from....
At about 4:00min. is some trans info...

And then I always thought this was great information... But it's just one year older....
