Ok, puh-leeze be patient ...and tolerant. I'm desperate - fluid level is low ...
1993 VOLVO 240 S/W, non-turbo, A/T
I looked in owner manual for specs on P/S fluid, which says
"Fluid type: ATF."
I've also seen comments to absolutely NOT use P/S fluid.
The ATF specified is "Type F"
O'Reilly's: tried to sell me P/S fluid, then sold me 'O'Reilly's ATF + 4'
full synthetic, marked for Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, Jeep and SOME
Mitsubishis and Hondas.'
Auto Zone: sold me STP ATF, Type F, marked 'for Ford pre-1981.'
Note: I don't have access to VOLVO Brand ATF locally.
Is it SAFE for me to use the STP ATF?? Or do I need to buy another
brand??? If so, what??
