Default Ax-15 Tranz flush and fluid change

What kind of fluid can I use to flush out the Tranz a few times the previous owner had never changed it and the old fluid came out like mud and what's a good fluid to run???

Brake cleaner and let it all evaporate before you put the specified fluid back in.
