Hi,



I've just fixed my power steering hose but wonder what kind of fluid I need to put in the power steering? Is it the same as the transmission fluid?



I hear people talk about ATF


I walk into the auto parts store and pick up the can that says "power steering fluid". Generally speaking, I go by what is in my owners or repair manual.

depends on when car was made... since 1980, at least, PS fluid.

I think there will be a label on the stick or cap if it should be type F on the old cars.

It's for my '67 Mustang, and unfortunately I don't have an owners manual...

Type F.

I have a '65 and I just use regular old power steering fluid. how did you fix your power steering hose/system? mine is leaking from somewhere, i am guessing its from the reservoir hose connection...who knows :S
