My mechanic just called. I didn't put oil in the transmission fluid I put it in the power-steering, which is worse. Go figure. But it is fixable.
The oil that goes into the power steering pump is red, and is the same as transmission oil. Its a thinner weight, and contains anti-foaming additives.
The oil that goes in your motor is green, and thicker and heat tolerant.
The Federal Bureau of Standards require oils, gas, and fuels to be color coded.
That's mistake millions have made......
I feel a little better.
