MTX Fluid

[smcallis]

I just went to top off the fluid in my Tranny this weekend. The manual calls for automatic tranny fluid...Is that correct?

Yes.

Use the correct kind as specified for your year's tranny.

Redline D4 is the stuff I have in there now, and I really love it.

But yes, any automatic transmission fluid that meets the specs listed in the manual should be fine.

Err...The manual only specs ford fluid. I have some bottles of valvoline auto tranny fluid at home. How do I tell which fluid my tranny takes? Its a '93. It didnt seem to specify anything other than the Ford Fluid P/N

This is what Ford states:

Specifications - Fluid Type Specifications
Manual Transmission MERCON ATF

Any Mercon ATF will do. I would recommend that you drain the oil and add Redline D4 ATF(Synthetic)
