    What to use for power steering fluid?

    Manual says 'Dexron Type'.

    What does that mean? Any type of dexron?

    I have Nulon full sythetic ATF which is rated at Dexron II, III and IV, that should be fine right?

    Without googling myself, I'm sure it's fine.
    In the past I've used regular mineral dexIII oil for powersteering fluid.

    It'll be fine. I don't think there's much you can do wrong with P/S fluid.

    Thanks guys.

    Bit alarming that its gotten to below the low sign, had to remove the basket filter to see the fluid level just below it.

    Will drain everything i can and cycle through some fully syth ATF.

    As long as the reservoir wasn't empty i wouldn't be worried.
