Re: fluids
Hi Dave,<br />I'm not a 100% sure, but I know when I'm at a parts house, I haven't ever noticed different grades of powersteering fluid. I know for sure not to use tranny fluid, engine oil, and brake fluid. These are definetly fluids that can ruin you system. I would pick up the phone and double check with your local Merc rep and ask them.<br /><br />If it is low, you probably have a leak somewhere. Fluid just does not evaporate within a closed system. Remember OIL in the bilge is a serious violation if it gets pumped out into the water by your bilge pump. The fines and cleanup costs can be expensive enough to buy a new boat.<br /><br />Good Luck and welcome aboard
