    Dumb questions

    First off... The maint manual for my disco I says for auto transmission that I should use either Dexron III or Dexron IID, so I shall use Dexron III. However the powersteering seems to call for only Dexron IID, is there any reason for this? Can I just use more Dexron III? Next, does anyone...
