Best transmission fluid? - Page 2

I have always used Type F no matter the brand.

The John Deere fluid was recommended to me by Alex Denysenko he said when he ran type f he had to change it every 50 passes and the the John Deere was poured in when trans was freshened up and did have to change it until the next freshen up. So that’s what I went to with good results.

I have cases of old Type F in round cans, anyone care to share info if it's still good to use after all these years or what to do with it? Some in basement some in back of garage stacked high, still in original boxes.

Thanx in advance

Shake the can first, some additives tend to settle out.

Fram / Carquest or Valvoline Dexron VI full synthetic at Advance Auto works perfect for me. I wounder if some brands come from the same tap with their own name on them.

Has anybody tried the ATI super F ULV 0W-8 vs the regular 20w trans fluid?

I use Motorcraft Mercon LV with no problems.

I have been using it in the Jeep for a couple of years. 315 HP at 3305 lbs. No problems - Never did a back to back but its not slower!

Which trans fluid did you switch from? Just curious where the difference is from and to
