I have a M/T 1996 Nissan 200SX and I need to add more Power Steering Fluid to the reservoir. The manual says "Dexron II or equivalent", but the guy at Kragen said to use the Dexron III Automatic Transmission Fluid. I don't even have an A/T! Can I use this for the PSF, or will it screw up my car?

Dexron III is the newest replacement for Dexron II so yes, you can use it. The fact that you have a M/T has nothing to do with the P/S fluid you use since you're not putting the fluid in the tranny. You can use "Approved P/S Fluid" or the Dexron and you wont hurt a thing. Most cars use Auto Trans Fluid in their P/S pumps.
