Hi
I use the Dexron III. Don't know why someone would say that it hurts
seals. It has additives to protect seals and keep extend their life.
Its primary use of course is automatic transmissions which are loaded
with critical seals running at high temp. I use it in my Humvee. No
leaks.

Has anyone used power steering fluid in their HMMWV instead of
Dextron-3? I've been told Dextron-3 erodes seals.
