I'm wanting to flush my power steering system.
In my early model Mustang my mechanic shop teacher told me its ok to use automatic trans fluid. Thats exactly what I did.
As the years have passed and the old Mustang has found a new home. I now own other vehicles and have always just bought bottles marked as "Power Steering Fluid" (clear fluid).
Me knowing what I know. I am aware that trans fluid has excellent cleaning properties. I was thinking I could flush the system with ATF and be a happy camper.
Any thoughts or advice on this would be cool.
Thanks
