SV: [Chrysler300] Power Steering Fluid vs. ATF+3

["Narve Nordanger" <narve.n@xxxxxxx>]

Slightly less than 2 cents worth,

my C-300 stopped its squealing from the PS pump when I replaced ATF with
General Motors PSF (the only one available at the time). The steering
functioned as previously (full-time power with no road feel, still leaking,
etc), but the car became less embarrassing to park in tight places.

I don't know the difference, But I went out to the garage and took a
little ATF+3 and compared it to pre 1989  Chrysler Power steering  Fluid
and after 1989 Chrysler Power Steering Fluid  and to me Both of the
Power steering fluids seem to be a little bit heavier or thicker how
ever you want to describe it.      It seems to me that back many years (
around the mid 50's they did use  ATF in the power steering pump.
Just My Opinion.     Gary Barker
