[Mgs] T35 Borg Warner auto fluid

[James Schulte]

Dan
 Lol, are you a current or retired teacher/professor?
That's exactly how I would challenge my student.
I don't like to assume knowing what is accepted practice on a topic I haven't researched outside my trusty internet bulletin boards. I don't have literature on the T 35 and used a local shop to service it 9 years ago when I became concerned about the way it was operating.  ( not down shifting when decelerating. )
So now it needs to warm up before it shifts from 2nd to 3rd. I am thinking I should at least change the fluid to see if that solves the problem.  Not being a mechanic, that is my initial plan. The shop refused to take my car in due to the experienced mechanic being retired.

Jim, why would you not use ATF? I've seen recommendations for Type F. Not sure whether that is still available or not.

Looking for suggestions on tranny fluid for automatic T 35 Borg Warner. Don't say 20w50 oil cause autos are different. What is the recommended fluid in the US. and how much will the tranny take in quarts?
Thanks for your time and consideration.
