Can I mix normal power steering fluid with the lucas power steering stop leak?

Asked by trypaw (332points) July 22nd, 2012

My mechanic replaced my normal power steering fluid with “Lucus power steering stop leak” to seal up a small pin sized hole in my PS hose. Its been a couple months and my PS fluid is just below the dotted dash mark (not sure if that’s low or not) But I was wondering may I just add normal PS fluid now or do I have to keep adding the lucus stuff. Do I need to flush out the lucus before I put in my normal PS fluid? I would like to know if I can just add normal fluid now. Also is the lucus safe to leave in my car if I even wanted to?
