You're talking about the old trick of putting a little ATF into the tank to clean out injectors and such.
If your engine is EPA2010 or Euro 5/6 compliant, do not do this. That means, if you have a diesel particulate filter on your diesel - you'll clog the DOC face and the DPF by doing this.

mercon, not merconV matters not if its auto or manual. They all use the same
Putting brake fluid in diesel fuel can cause significant damage to the engine and fuel system. Brake fluid, which is typically glycol-based, is not compatible with diesel fuel and can lead to corrosion, clogs, and the breakdown of fuel components. This contamination can result in poor engine performance, potential engine failure, and costly repairs. It's crucial to keep these fluids separate and use them only as intended.
The 1997 Isuzu NPR diesel typically uses Dexron III automatic transmission fluid for its automatic transmission. It's important to check the owner's manual or consult with a dealer for the specific fluid type recommended for your model, as there may be variations based on the transmission type. Always ensure to use the correct fluid to maintain optimal performance and avoid potential damage.
