Power steering fluid question. What to use I've heard 30 weight oil, hydraulic oil, power steering fluid. What's in there now is a redish pink color what is that? Thanks.

Probably some kind of automatic tranny fluid in it. I use a universal transdraulic oil. Years ago, an AC dealer told me to use Dexron II in the 45 Power Steering.

Dextron is what we have always used.

My manual says 'Ask the owner what he's using' Could be ATF, motor oil, hydraulic oil. They're not very particular about what you put in there. It's probably a good idea to not mix fluids in case there's additives that don't get along with each other.
