bummer. if you could possibly do a write up that would be great. till then ill have to look for the original ignition barrel. (hope my mam didnt throw it away)

I went to my local parts shop today as i needed auto box fluid. i was sold some fordM2C-33G ATF-G auto box fluid. no where on the bottle does it say dexron ii so id like to know if anyone has heard of this type of fluid? is it safe to use? cheers
