I'd stick with ATF, especially up North if you drive the van in the winter.

I still have the 3 spd from my '75 Tradesman, and the manual for it. I'll take a look for it when I get home today...

I remember the first time I prepped/serviced a new Dodge with a three speed and found ATF. I thought it was some kind of a joke.

Removed a rear end cover on a new one and found no gasket, just black RTV. What?
