Im such a dumb prick.
Accidently put about 30mls of green clutch/brake fluid into my pwr steering. The bottles of the stuff i got look the same, i only noticed because i saw the green mixing with red.
Does this warrant a full flush out? What affect will this have?

disconnect it at the rack go lock to lock to push out excess fluid and replace with power steer fluid or dextron 3 and she'll be right mate

hi there again mate ones supply line and ones return, it pushes fluid to ur rack while your turning and the other will send excess fluid back to the resevoir if u have the old rack that has the plastic plugs in the bottom of the rack just disconnect one side at a time and turn the wheel, put that hose into a container throw a litre or so thru it and she'll live .
