I have one with no foward, but strong reverse. I need to get it to move so I can take somewhere to get it replaced(even if its to a friends house with a concrete driveway). How much would you put in or is this a hopeless cause.

P.S. I have heard that Power Steering fluid and Tranny fluid are the same type of oil different viscosities. I bought a truck one time that the PO was putting tranny fluid in the PS to stop it from leaking out so fast. (PO was my dad and I got a 96 Z71 4x4 for 300 bucks, I would normally skip over any truck that was cared for improperly. After replacing the PS pump it ran great for the 3 years I had it)
