power steering fluid

[momorugger]

Where do I put power steering fluid in? I don't have a manual yet, and I need to know, as I seem to have sprung a leak.

It is the little black container right by or under teh airbox next to the radiator. Hope that helps.

I was told that was the tranny fluid. Thanks a lot of the help.

Also......VERY IMPORTANT!!!
Do not put generic/any "POWER STERRING FLUID"........it takes ATF oil. Yes, the stuff that you use for transmission refill.
Good Luck!

For the ti, to change the tranny fluid you need to put the car up, undo the bolt and let it drain, there is no way of getting to it from under the hood. Just want to point that out.
