This is where you could screw up *big time*... it only takes
a few seconds to empty the reservoir, and a few seconds
of running it dry to ruin the pump. Be *careful* here...

Thanks for the heads up. I will be careful, only if the rain lets up (its
been raining for a couple of weeks).

Your Saginaw steering box is nearly identical to that used in a
1955 Cadillac. Just use any oil especially made for it. We used to use
automatic transmission fluid until about 1972 when it was made against
the law to use whale oil.
