Can I use Hydraulic Steering fluid in my Tilt/Trim Reservoir?
Engine: 1987 Johnson J50TLCUD
I recently purchased this engine and rebuilt the Tilt/Trim cylinders. I now need to refill the system. Can I use hydraulic steering fluid instead of OEM Tilt/Trim fluid? Evinrude's OEM fluid is labeled as "Power Trim/Tilt and Power Steering Fluid". I know that bleeding the system can be a pain in the Butt.
Thanks in advance.

Use ATF Dexron if you do not want to use the Evinrude TnT fluid
