I hope you get positive results.
I looked at the licensed Castrol Transmax MV LV, it has the lowest reported PDS flash point of any of the licensed alternatives to Motorcraft Mercon LV I've seen so far at 177°C. That's 39°C / 70°F lower than Motorcraft Mercon LV and 43°C / 77°F lower than Kendall Versatrans LV. Based on this Castrol is at the bottom of my list for licensed alternatives to Motorcraft Mercon LV, and Kendall remains at the top of my list.
Also Walmart sells both a licensed Super Tech MV LV ATF and an unlicensed version. The Super Tech MV LV ATF produced by Warren is the legitimate stuff, and is available in both gallon jugs and quart bottles. This is in a blue plastic container with the Mercon LV license number printed on the back label (and Dexron VI license number inked on the bottle). The unlicensed ST MV LV ATF comes in silver plastic quart bottles and gallon jugs and has no license numbers on the label or container. Be careful to read the labels at Walmart.
The licensed ST MV LV ATF has a flash point of 201°C (looking at Mag 1) and $6 / qt. everday price so it's my second choince after Kendall Versatrans LV, especially if less than case quantities are needed. Pennzoil Platinum MVLV ATF ranks below ST but above Castrol on my list with its published flash point of 190°C.
