Home Basics Multi-Purpose Automatic Transmission Fluid
Distributed by OnPoint, Inc., Montvale, NJ
Purchased in:
A&P 1185 Amboy Ave, Edison, NJ
Date of purchase: 5/9/2012
Note: PQIA's test results for
this sample show the viscosity @ 100°C slightly misses the Dexron III and Mercon
specification of 6.8 cSt minimum. This would not be
expected to cause performance issues in transmissions
designed to use Dexron III and Mercon specification fluids.
