type 43 ps fluid

[Jim Dupree]

I was told, long ago, that the type F (Ford) ATF had
better lubricating qualities than Dextron fluid. By
now we have Dextron II and III and Mercron fluids but
I have always use the type F in PS applications that
allowed for ATF, I figured it would help the pump
last.
