I know the steering uses mercon. However I just got an AGR pump to replace my dead saginaw pump and in the instructions it comes with it specifies to use strictly PSF and not ATF. What should I use?
I re-read and it says "Use only clear, name brand, premium, racing or synthetic power steering fluid, such as Royal Purple or Red Line. Do not use transmission fluid, as transmission fluid does not contain the same friction inhibitors/additives and tends to breakdown and overheat. Use of transmission fluid will void warranty."
I guess my main concern is will anything bad really happen to the rack and pinion/seals with the PSF?
