There is a cap that turns about 1/4 turn to be removed on top of the P/S reservoir, which is attached to the P/S pump. Take it off and add fluid until it reaches the mark on the stick, which is part of the lid.
The power steering is a separate system to the engine. The power steering system consists of a pump, bolted to the engine. A steering box, bolted to the vehicals frame and two hoses carrying fluid back and forth between the two. There is no power steering hose "in" the engine.
The cap should have a dipstick attached to it with lines on it for hot & cold levels
To check the power steering fluid on your 1991 Caprice remove the cap on the power steering pump fluid reservoir and check the level on the fluid level indicator. If the fluid is warm(about 170 degrees)the fluid level should be at the "Full Hot" mark. If the fluid is cool(about 70 degrees) the fluid level should be at the "Full Cold" mark.Always use the correct power steering fluid to avoid damage to the hoses and seals which will result in fluid leaks. It should be noted that the reservoir (pardon my spelling) is located under the alternator (On my '91 with the 305, that is) - So you can't do it while the car is running.....Kenny
you can replace the hoses easily.your local parts supplier will have them in stock.you will need a drain pan,a stubby 16mm wrench,a stubby 18mm wrench,regular length wrenches in the same sizes. instructions are included with your new hoses, please be sure to follow them.it sould only take 45 minutes with a cool engine.make sure you have a couple quarts of approved power steering fluid on hand.do not reuse the old fluid.
No such thing.
Be very careful NOT to put trans fluid in an engine ! - It goes down the tube that holds trans dipstick, into the transmission.
