[QUOTE="onetoncrawler, post: 268315, member: 846"] Straight from PSC's instructions - 4. Fill reservoir with power steering fluid (NEVER use automatic transmission fluid). Leave the cap off of the reservoir. - now I ran ATF for years with no issue, just regular offroading/ crawling - the first race I ran I burned up a pump , did a lot of research and found out the ATF has a course mixture of particles and no anti foaming agents - it is heavy in detergents and doesn't cool as well - the "grit" in ATF is known to eat up a pump - in a low revving vehicle you should be ok with anything but if you rock bounce or race I'd definitely stick with a synthetic power steering fluid [/QUOTE]
