i'm reading the owners manual and the book says to use
Dexron II, Dexron IIE, Dexron III type automatic transmission fluid.

am i reading this incorrect??
are they saying to refill the power steering fluid with automatic
transmission fluid???

Would you put power steering fluid in your transmission?

Yes use auto trans fluid. I went one step further and replaced the fluid
with synthetic auto trans fluid (Mobil 1 I think but not sure)
Two years now and everything's fine. A couple of guy I know did the same.

When you buy a container of "power steering fluid" you are really just
getting automatic trans fluid....but paying a premium for it! TG
