what do you guys use as alterntive for the fti flow for lubrcation should i use ATF? and in the stratus manual it says that the sprag cluch will hold about 8cc (8mL) but mine holded only about 1.5 cc which is 1.5 mL (ATF). what you think the problem is?

I never measure the amount. I just soak the sprague clutch in oil till it overflows out of the housing. ATF is fine to use a lubricant.

3 in 1 is a light weight machine oil that is here in the USA.
Any ATF should work just fine. The sprag clutch needs a light weight oil as a lubricant.
Here is the USA most use Tri-flow oil. It is a light weight oil with suspended teflon.
