[MC20350(M )04/96]
4.6L SFI engine (check cold)
[MC20355(M )04/96]
NOTE: The brakes on the 4.6L engine vehicles
are powered by power steering fluid
from the power steering pump. The
fluid level in the power steering
reservoir will rise and fall due to the
amount of charge in the brake booster
accumulator. Therefore the following is
required.
[MC20400(MBC )12/95]
1. Check the fluid level when the system is
COLD (allow at least one half hour after
driving for the power steering fluid to cool).
[MC20500(MBC )04/96]
2. Locate the power steering reservoir mounted
to the front upper left-hand corner of the
engine.
[MC20550(M )04/96]
NOTE: Brake fluid and power steering fluid
CAN NOT be mixed. Only add brake
fluid to the brake master cylinder
reservoir. Only add power steering
fluid to the power steering reservoir.
[MC20600(MBC )12/95]
3. Visually verify that the fluid level is above
the MIN line adjacent to the reservoir “sight
window.”
[MC20700(MBC )12/95]
4. If the power steering fluid is below the MIN
line, remove the cap and add fluid in small
amounts until the level is between the MIN
and MAX lines.
[MC20800(MBC )12/95]
5. Reinstall the reservoir cap.
[MC20850(M )03/96]
It is normal for the fluid level to be above the
MAX line after the brake pedal has been pushed
several times with the engine off. (If you want
to double check it; restart engine and turn
steering wheel to full right turn, then full left
turn and then turn engine off and re-check fluid
level. It should be between MIN and MAX line.)
