Default Fmx transmission fluid

Hello, doing some research on the type of fluid that should be used in an FMX transmission. Can anyone tell me if it's DEXRON III or type F?

Thanks
Buzz

Yep, Type F is what it came with and requires. Type FA is acceptable too for trannys requiring F. You may have to look around or have it ordered for you, not all places stock it on the shelves anymore.

Dexron is a more modern fluid. The tranny will slip and not shift right if it's put into a Type F or FA tranny.
