Hello everyone,.....I have a 2002 Ford Escort in which I plan
changing out the transmission fluid. Does anyone here know which type
of fluid this vehicle takes?
 Also on the topic of lubricants,..does this vehicle have to "have"
5w-20 engine oil? Couldnt I use oil suitable to my area's wheather?
(U.S. Virginia) such as 10w-30 or 10w-40?
 Appreciate any advice.

According to the manual found here
https://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenance/owners_manuals/default.asp it uses
Mercon.
And the discussions on what oil to use are pretty much endless.
