Firstly, anyone know if you can top up the power steering?
When i open the reservoir will it have a minimum / maximum level inside?

-Had my engine rebuilt so just making sure fluid are all good.

What I did was suck out the old fluid with a clean mini pump (I used my old hydrometer which is of no use now) to the bottom of the container and then top up with the correct hydro fluid to the upper level of the dipstick. Make sure you keep things clinically clean and don't let dirt drop into container.
