PS Fluid, '99 Taurus Duratec

[LarryKL]

Trying to do partial flushes of PS by emptying the resorvior and adding new fluid. Used Mercon V, should be plain Mercon. Will this cause any problems?

[drdisque]

it shouldn't, the weight and density is pretty similar for those purposes.

Like the Dr said it should be OK. If you read the back of the type 5 bottle it should say that it is compatible with previous Mercon fluids. Anyway the one I bought does.

Thanks! The Valvoline Mercon V bottle states backward compatability, the CastroL V does not. Anyway I feel confident w/my ps system now.
