Hi Javier,

Well . . . no.  LOL!  I guess I sort of skimmed over
the page on the website, since this is one of those
items I haven't had to think about in some years.

You can use Dexron III in your power steering pump,
but I don't recommend it.  In my experience, Dexron is
much more likely to leak than actual power steering
fluid (which generally says "Power Steering Fluid" on
the label and is thicker than Dexron and clear in
color, rather than red like Dexron).

Go buy a bottle of Power Steering Fluid, and save the
Dexron III for your TorqueFlite.  :o)

Elijah
