Originally it would have used Dexron II. Dexron II has been replaced by DexronIII/Mercon and that's what you should use now.
Better or not, really isn't the question. Dexron-II has been replaced by Dexron-III. Any transmission that used Dexron-II can now use Dexron-III. Fluids labeled Dexron-III/Mercon are also acceptable.
If it is a A/T Powerglide, you can use Dexron or a synthetic such as Mobil 1 ATF. You may not be able to find Dexron, but you can use Dexron II or Dexron III.
Yes, you can use Dexron IV as a substitute for Dexron II in your transmission. Dexron IV is backward compatible with earlier Dexron specifications, including Dexron II, and offers improved performance and protection. However, it's always best to consult your vehicle's owner manual or a professional mechanic to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.
Honda originally specified Dexron II for that transmission. Dexron II no longer exists, as it was later superceded by Dexron III. So, use Dexron III. You will frequently see bottles of ATF that say "Dexron III/Mercon" or "Dex/Merc" for short. That's the stuff to use.
Use Dexron III instead of Dexron II that is recommended for this vehicle .The tray takes about 1.7 liter. Do not forget to replace the filter. Good luck !
Dexron II originally in 1970. If you're buying fluid for it now you won't likely find any Dexron II as it has been replaced by Dexron III/Mercon fluid and that's what you'll use now.
Dexron II and Dexron II E are both automatic transmission fluids, but they have different formulations and performance specifications. Dexron II E is an improved version of Dexron II, designed to provide better oxidation stability, thermal stability, and enhanced friction properties. This allows Dexron II E to perform better in high-temperature conditions and provide improved protection for transmission components compared to Dexron II. As a result, Dexron II E is often recommended for applications requiring higher performance standards.
DEXRON II or III
Dexron III/Mercon automotive transmission fluid (ATF) is generally recommended as a replacement fluid for automatic transmissions meeting original equipment manufacturers (O.E.M.) performance requirements for current General Motors, Ford, other domestic and imported passenger cars, vans and light trucks where DEXRON II, DEXRON II-E, DEXRON III, AND Ford/MERCON fluids are specified.Dexron VI is a partial synthetic which properties exceed dexron III by 100% in every area. Dexron VI can not be interchanged or repalced with DEXRON II, DEXRON II-E, DEXRON III, DEXRON-III/MERCON.
