Power Steering Fluid

[JWL1940]

Just finished doing a fluid change on R4541 - engine, transmission, differential - including new brake hoses and filter for the transmission. Earlier did a cooling system service. The only old fluid in the car is in the power steering. It looks old. No leaks or noise, but time for a change. I have no idea what kind of fluid is in it. I think it will take a few tries to drain, refill, drain, refill to get all new fluid in the system.

What are suggestions for the correct type of fluid to use?

Little by little getting through maintenance and service of all the systems.

Thanks

A knowledgeable party on another site wrote that the PS takes the same fluid as the AT, that is ATF Type F. I have some extra left over from the trans fluid service and will use it. Thanks

MARK, thanks. I did the job and the fluid that was in the canister looked like ATF. Bottom of canister was clean.
