By the way way. Make sure you check your hoses as well. The top hose that goes to the motor from the radiator was rubbing against the power steering box. Was ready to go too. Replace the clamps on the reservoir too. The original ones wont clamp well.

I just put in Mobil 1 75-90 with the GM additive that you can get at Amazon or the dealer.... You don't need to make a big analysis on something so trivial.
