I've always used Mobil 1 synthetic tranny fluid for an automatic. I also hear good things about Brad Penns, and Catepillars.

B & M still makes tranny fluid? Do they still come in the old school oil cans where you have to puncture the top with the funnel?

I run Redline Synthetic Type F. My buddies car we run John Deere Hyguard.

The "NEW" Red Line Lightweight Racing ATF is working really well.

The cheapest type F you can find!!!!! I have used every thing from synthetic to hydraulic av32 and av45 but have never hurt anything using type F,my trans guy told me to use it.Have it in 5 cars and NEVER have problems.
