On my coach there is no need to carry ATF for filling the fuel filter. The primer pump located behind the fuel bay door does the job perfectly.

I doubt it helps, but given the number of people doing it there appears to be no harm either. I would go with whatever fluid is cheapest and not necessarily go with the synthetic most of us have in the tranny.
What about Marvel Mystery Oil as a fluid that could be used to fill a diesel fuel filter if needed?

I carry the tire changing tools so I have a choice. I had the road service guy come out & not have the right tools - since I did, he used them & I was on my way sooner.
Digital multimeter is one I forgot.
An I/R temp gun (& use it frequently to know what 'normal' is) comes in handy.
