My Explorer has a V6 SOHC with 4R44E transmission.
My problem is that I live in Costa Rica, which is full of imports. Its time to flush the transmission and there isn't a bottle of Mercon V to be found in the country.
So a few questions...
I really have the option of a few ATF's, but each one makes me sweat at putting a multi-vehicle ATF in it.
Really restricted on what I can use although looking for more. There any particular one in the list that someone has used successfully? Anything I should know about these fluids?

- Lucas Oil Multi-Vehicle ATF
- Amalie Universal Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid
- Castrol Transmax DEX/MERC Multi-Vehicle Transmission Fluid
- Valvoline Maxlife ATF Mercon LV (pretty sure I can't use an LV in a 96
