Re: [MBZ] Alternate Uses for P/S Fluid?
That's what the heat gun is for. 2-3 minutes of hot air blast and the charcoal is going just fine, with no petro aftertaste. Wait 5 minutes, throw on some apple, maple or hickory sticks, and you're ready to cook. Mitch.

PS fluid and ATF are not interchangeable for any Benz after the W123. ATF will eat the seals in the newer PS pumps. I know, it happened to mine. I don't know of any real other use for PS fluid, it's a light hydraulic oil with anti-wear characteristics for vane type pumps. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] Alternate Uses for P/S Fluid?
ATF fluid and Power Steering fluid should be pretty much the same. Both are made to run hydraulic "things"... My new Ford truck specs for the use of ATF oil for power steering. That is satisfying, since that's what I've been using for the last 30 years. ;)) I don't know what kind of cooking smoke PS oil might give your BBQ. But, I'm willing to bet it would leave a "layer of flavor" you would not soon forget.

[MBZ] Alternate Uses for P/S Fluid?
I am in the process of straightening up my garage to clear out some of the clutter. I'm finding lots of items that I haven't needed for several years. I have the tendency to keep these things "just in case". Among those items are about five containers (some open, some sealed) of power steering fluid. Are there any alternate uses for power steering fluid?
