TH400 Owners - What fluid do I use?
What fluid is everyone using in their TH400?
I am using Dexron III, but I've heard other people use type F fluid. Which is better? With the Dexron, it feels like it slips too much in 3rd gear. I've hear type F fluid is better for TH400 because it allows the clutches to "grab" better. Is this true?
My transmission sees some street use, but not a daily driver. Mostly it will be used for the track.
Thanks

I called Rossler the other day after posting this same subject a week ago and couldn't get a clear answer. Rossler told me to use Dex III or a mix of DEX III and Type F would be good to. They aslo say B&M trick shift is good to use. I personally am just going to use B&M trick shift now as I don't want to do the mixing fluids game.
