Re: power steering fluid:what to use?
When I installed my WPM, the instructions said to use only merc. power steering fluid. Don't know why. I can tell you that the merc fluid does not have red dye and that is easier to live with.

I've been using regular ATF as the merc stuff is very expensive. The only getcha is that the ATF is hell on painted parts.

marine machine recommends the Mertron 3 or higher . It has the anti foaming agents in it. I use the Valvalone name brand.
