How many quarts of transmission fluid does a 1998 Mazda protege take if I changed the strainer and drained old transmission fluid out? Thanks in advance for your help.

If you have a manual transmission these are the check and fill plugs.

SOURCE: transmission oil change

The flush will help to remove and replace all the oil includeing the oil in the tork converter but it does not replace the filter screen.
I buy the filter kit. It comes with the new filter and trans pan gasket. Take the pan off (be careful its got 4 or 5 quarts of use oil behind it) let the oil drain out and take some paper towels and clean the inside of the pan.Remove the old filter,put in the new one. Put the pan back on with the new gasket and refill the trans oil with good quality oil. (Valvoline)
The tork converter may have a drain plug on it but most dont and you just leave that oil in.

SOURCE: Capacity of fluid for a transmission of a 2006 F150 5.4L Truck. Book says 13.9 quarts I emptied 3-4 quarts.

you must have just drained the pan? There is much more held in the converter. The one I am rebuilding this week is an 05 and doesn't have a drain plug on it (not many do anymore). A flush is the only way to change it all out. 13.9qts sounds like the total amount if the trans was completely empty, converter and all
