I have a 1990 F150 pickup. I know the power steering fluid is low
from the noise. The cap is a plastic thing with 2 fins to turn. I
have tried and tried and it will not come off. If I push on those
fins any harder they will break off. WTF is with this thing? Who
designs **** like this anyhow? I have never had this problem on any
other vehicle I have owned, both Ford and other. Of course they used
to be made of metal where a wrench could be used if needed, but I
never needed a wrench off get off a damn power steering cap.
My guess is they are designed this way so they break and I have to
spend $50 for a new piece of **** plastic cap.....
Seems everything these days is plastic and made to break and piss off
the owner. It used to be a 5 minute job to add P.S. fluid, but not no
more....
By the way, is there any advantage to power steering fluid, over using
plain tranny fluid (aside from the seller making more money)?
Thank U
