Hello again! I’ve developed a leak from where the shifter cable connects to the transmission. So many options for ATF! My manual doesn’t specify what type of ATF I should use. The Pep Boys guys are clueless, but they love my car! Totally drooling all over her! What do you guys use?
Thanks! 
Remind me of what year and tranny your have?
Most of these old Cougars use Type F. Which can also be used for power steering fluid BTW.

It`s ATF type F, but you can also pull out the dipstick and read what it says there, the specifications are written on the dipstick
For the power steering use NAPA ATF type F. It is a little thicker than other brands and less prone to leaking.
^^^ What? Leaky power steering!?

It’s not leaking; it’s only marking its territory.
