ATF + 4 is backwards Compatible according to Chrysler for modern Torque Flites. Bob Haag On Jun 4, 2023, at 4:37 PM, Steve <saforwardlook@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
It seems that I have some cars that were filled with Dextron II and some with Dextron III as time has progressed. So is Dextron III backwards compatible with Dextron II? Given a brief search of the internet at the time of changeover, most were saying ATFIII is backwards compatible but not all replies agreed but most said they are.

Hi Don,
There is a Type FA. Any opinion whether it could also be used? It stands for Ford Automatic or Ford Anti Foaming Agents.
I heard that the original oils had Sperm Whale oils and no longer were available?

Here is a write up from the big block Ford site:
On the older shift kits from b&M they would recomend type F trans fluid for use in the brand x transmissions .the Type F helps give a firmer shift but doesn't hold up well to heat. Type FA Transmission FluidType FA is a high-quality transmission fluid specifically engineered to protect and prolong the life of automatic transmissions. It is designed for use where Ford specifications M2C33-F, M2C33-G and Ford Type F fluids are recommended. •Provides excellent resistance against clutch slippage for extended transmission life •Provides excellent resistance to fluid oxidation/breakdown at high temperatures •Approved for 1980 and earlier Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles •Approved for use in Mazda, Saab, Toyota, Volvo and other Japanese and European vehicles requiring a Type F fluid •Other applications include air compressors, general purpose hydraulics and power steering systems zoil A/C Compressor oil works good for modified high hp transmissions. type FA stands for ford automatic or ford anti foaming agentsOn Monday, May 22, 2023, 6:52 PM, 'Donald Verity' via Chrysler 300 Club International <chrysler-300-club-international@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Do not use type A. Go with Dexron III or type F. Either one will shift the same. Stay away from synthetics. Don
