Can ATF be used in the power steering pumps of a 240 and an '98 S70?

Absolutely.
Don't put Dexron in your tranny though. It is too slick for friction surfaces.

LOL...
Thanks for the info and the link for the 98 S70 owners manual. This will help down the road. We never did get one with the car.

There are plenty of cowboys around here, although I haven't been mistaken for one lately.
I did start wearing blue jeans again since I lost some weight and look a little better in them.
