Dexron III ATF, that's according to my manual of course.
Dexron III should be compatible even if the trans currently has Dexron II in it. By the way, you may find that what's available is labeled "Dexron III/Mercon"; don't be concerned, since Ford's recent Mercon ATF spec has the same general frictional characteristics as Dexron III, hence the dual-usage labeling.

Get 3 gallons, drain and clean the pan, filter if you want.

Fill it up and pull the top trans hose from the radiator. Put a temp hose on and run it into a gallon milk jug.

 

Start the car and pour new fluid in at the same rate the old nasty stuff is coming out. Shut it down, put the hose back on and fill it to the cold full mark and then take it for the test drive.

I opted for the triple drain with a drive around the block between each. I now have good color and shifting!!
