Post LE Trans Fluid

Had LE 1107 Trans Fluid filled in my '97 F150 E4OD.
So far so good: 25 Miles, no problems.

Initial impression is that it seems to transfer heat better. Coming up to a stop, trans temp will climb to 150F. >1/2 mile after the green and it cools back down to 125F. Granted 60-80 degree days are ideal for trans warmup and cooling. I'll have to wait 'till next summer to really see how it runs.

Does that fluid have a Mercon rating?

Mark,
It is a mercon/DexronIII fluid. That is what cinched it for me.

The container is labeled:
DexronIII G-34185
Mercon M930101

I assume the numbers are the specs it meets.

Oil Man,
Can you shed some light on these numbers?

Tony
