My owners manual says to use dexron III.

The owners manual on my 1997 states that for a NV 241, it should be 6.5 pints of ATF+2 or Dexron III. The service interval is every 30,000 miles.

I used ATF +4. It took 3 1/2 quarts for me (manual said 4, but it wouldn't fill anymore even with the t-case level. I've got the 241 DHD.
