Correct fluid for OMC tilt/ trim pump?

[Darkhorse1201]

What would be the correct or a good substitue fluid fo my 1992 OMC 4.3 sterndrive tilt/ trim pump. The manual says to use only OMC fluid but no more OMC!

The Evinrude/Johnson Power trim/tilt and power steering fluid will be sufficient for your needs. P/N 775612

Yes, the same as OMC. Somebody posted earlier this year that you could use ATF as well. I would think one would need to prurge the old fluid before adding ATF, but I'm not sure.

I used good ole tilt/trim fluid from Wally World and never had a problem.
