So i just bought a 1995 Jeep Wrangler YJ 2.5L and have no idea what brand fluids were used in this vehicle, 1st fluid change i am doing is the power steering fluid. I am using a turkey baster to get most of the fluid out of the reservoir and was wondering if have some old fluid mixed with mostly new fluid would hurt anything, especially since i have no idea what fluid was previously used? what's your professional opinion, will it cause any damage or be just fine
It wont do any damage. There are many scenarios in cars where you cannot get all the old fluid out. Such as draining a transmission pan, or a radiator. In both of these cases you are not getting all of the coolant or ATF out. If you wish, you can repeat that process a few times until the power steering fluid is all clean. This will be like a "flush". But if you just want to do it just once than that's fine as well.
