15W-40 Diesel C rated oil such as Rotella, Delo, Motorcraft would be my choice.

ATF Valvoline Dex/Merc.

Brake fluid Ate or Castrol LMA. Confirm that you use the correct type fluid as printed on the MC cap.

Coolant Zerex G-05 or genuine.

Power Steering Febi, Pentosin genuine. Change the PS filter, it's a must.

Just my opinion, I'm not a chemist or lubrication engineer.

Good luck!!!
