RE: What is the correct type of transmission fluid for a 1962 torqueflight

[<62-65-mail-list-club@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the update. Looking like the wrong trans filter was put in, does it not?

I recall reading that, as a general rule,  AT fluid is generally designed to be backwards compatible.  Newer Mopar fluid 
works in an older TF. But rules are made and broken so look for a "compatible with" statement from the manufacturer.
For example: https://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/28070/10002/-1  displays such a statement.
 
A version of Mercon® is what the 1962 TF used originally I think. 

P.S. type F was a Ford fluid; some Mopar racers used it to get "firmer" shifts.
