Power steering fluid
Hi everyone
I can get these two power steering fluids locally (Belgium... ACdelco stuff is hard to find):
- Eurol Powersteering fluid A
https://eurol.com/en/products/eurol-...ering-fluid-a/
- Eurol Powersteering fluid C
https://eurol.com/en/products/eurol-...ering-fluid-c/
What would be the best choice?

IMO, if those were my only 2 choices, I would go with A.
Back when these cars were new, there was no hydraulic fluid dedicated solely for power steering systems. The P/S systems were factory filled with ATF.

I'd go with the synthetic as well if I had only those two
FWIW, here's Jim Shea's doc on fluid
Important part is probably the "To be honest, all of the Saginaw power steering pumps adapt fairly well to all kinds of fluids." line

Wish Jim was still around....
(I thought it would have been like mid 70s, I know when they brought it out the went to the "use this, if not available use dextron)
Anyway, I've got a case of the stuff so at least I know what's leaking based on the color off the puddle lol
