Your 1997 Mercury Mountaineer came from the factory with ( Motorcraft MERCON automatic transmission fluid ) in your 4R70W automatic transmission ( the type that you are supposed to use should be engraved in your automatic transmission fluid dipstick just to confirm )
A 1997 Lincoln Continental will use Mercon transmission fluid- AX4N Transmission
The Mercury Sable transmission has a fluid capacity of 12 quarts. You can use any SAE certified automatic transmission fluid.
You can use any type of SAE certified transmission fluid in your 1997 Chevrolet Blazer. You can check the transmission fluid level with the transmission fluid dipstick.
According to the 1997 Mercury Mountaineer owners manual : Your 4R70W automatic transmission takes ( Motorcraft MERCON automatic transmission fluid ) * the type that is used should be engraved into your automatic transmission fluid level dipstick *
From the transmission fluid level dip stick. Remove the stick, use a funnel (the tube is very small, about 1/2 inch diameter), fill in the ATF
It is important to use the right type of transmission fluid in a car. The 1997 F350 Diesel uses Mercon III transmission fluid.
Manual transmissions dont use fluid, they use a kind of grease.
Mercon
Dexron/mercon
the transmission fluid for your truck is dex/merc
I have a '93 ford escort 1.9, I always use mercron automatic transmission fluid. Use Mercon but do not use Mercon V.
