Update: 4kq ps fluid - Pentosin or ATF?
I just took another look at the ps fluid on my car and managed to wet a
piece of white paper and the veredict is in. My '87 4kcsq with the
dreaded G 002000 sticker uses a red-brownish fluid which I assume is
regular (dirty) Dexron ATF. The reservoir has "ATF" molded on the side
between the min and max marks. The owner's manual even specifically
says it's Dexron ATF, so why is that Pentosin sticker there is beyond
me. So, unless anyone else has other words of wisdom, I am going ahead
and changing the filter and refiling with ATF and hoping for the best.
