8n transmission fluid

On the bright side, ATF cleans residue out pretty well.
Flush it out, clean it well and fill it with your choice of fluid.
I'm in Michigan, I use UTF that meets Ford M2C134D spec or better.
Some guys down south prefer to use the 90 weight mineral oil.
To the best of my knowledge, both are acceptable.
 

I will pull the lift cover and drop the pump on one next week the control valve in the pump is stuck I got it unstuck its now stuck in the lift position... I will fill it back up with 80W90 ....
 
Hydraulic oil is normally a clearish, honey-like color. Red indicates a dye and is most likely a UTF or ATF substance. I don't like the dye stuff as you can't tell if it gets contaminated with water. When hydraulic oil gets water in it, it turns a murky brown. Any evidence of 'chunks of crap' in the sump means its time to drain and clean the system, and best to drop and rebuild the pump. get the manuals and read before doing the job.

(quoted from post at 18:57:35 08/19/18) What color is the trans fluid in a 8n supposed to be? Mine is kind of a red


If it has a strong odor, a appears to be thicker than motor oil, it could be 85/90 transmission gear oil. If it smells like oil, and seems to be thin and runny, it could be automatic transmission oil.
