I'm getting ready to change my PS rack in my 84 Westy, as a leak developed from the rack about 2 months after changing the PS lines, and putting in Amsoil ATF fluid. A friend / mechanic told me that sometimes it is not recommended to use synthetic fluids in Power Steering applications. Since I never had a leaking problem when I used regular ATF fluid, I'm now questioning what fluid would be best to use after I replace my rack. Should I be concerned about using synthetic? What is the "best" stuff to use for my Power Steering in my 84. Thanks! Jack R. 84 Westy Wolfie N. of Detroit
