TYPE A was discontinued decades ago. Progression development over the years has resulted in DEXRON III (GM) as the service replacement.

MERCON (FOMOCO) unique to FORD applications has resulted in MERCON V, a partial synthetic, called out for all previous MERCON applications.

Rule of thumb- TYPE F can be used in early GM DEXRON(S) application(s) but not visa-versa.

It is even more confusing now as TRANS are sourced from all over the world and require their own unique lubricants.
