[QUOTE="Nelson Atwell, post: 558806, member: 59102"] According to the Service manager at Five Star Ford in OKC, the standard Mercon V has a rust inhibitor in it, which causes the trottle body to stick. The additive added under the service recall was designed to counteract the rust inhibitor. The new reformulated transmission does not have the rust inhibitor. I did not get details about this, and took him at his word. I will try to call and get more information on this tomorrow. I am not sure if Mercon V is still recommended for our transmissions in light of what I was told. :unsure: [/QUOTE]
