Maybe he recommended it because its synthetic, but you need to stick with Mercon. E4ODs will let you know quickly if you put a junk ATF in it. Does the ATF4 he is recommending meet Mercon specs?

It's a Canadian thing eh!
ATF IV is just the synthetic stuff. Most of the bottles will have labels on them telling you whether its compatible with Merc III and other applications but I do believe it is.
Not exactly relevant but I did do a flush on a 99 GMC 1500 last week and it called for ATF +4 being the new standard and since its reverse compatible with DEX III.

Thanks for the info guys. He did my flywheel and flushed my tranny. Refilled with atf 4 and now shifts hard from 1st to 2nd. But from reading this site that is caused by a number of things I need to look into.
Thanks glad I stumbled upon this site to help with my 90 lariet.
