Somebody some time ago touted Mobil 1 synthetic ATF fluid........
having a slow leak at a hose, and it being a Sunday afternoon, when no Pentosin was available for sale, I dumped in the Mobil 1 on top of my Pentosin from the "min" add level to the "max" add level in the reservoir. I drove the car for another three months before selling. It didn't seem to cause any difficulties.

It does NOT have silmilar properties to Pentosin. It's a poor substitute, w/very low viscosity index
Questionable base stock and questionable friction modifier additives for the pump. Super-thick in cold, not good for any aspect of hydrolics. The price alone should tell you something.
