Even if its not likely the problem bleeding takes 15 minutes. I think its worth a try and would do it to be sure. You don't even have to jack up the truck. The bleed sequence is different than some. I think it goes like pump leave pedal up open bleeder then push then close bleeder. Check the ford book I could be wrong. Transmission R&R on the other hand is a PITA.
