Post subject:  Power steering fluid?

The fluid in the power steering pump of my '60 Valiant is red in color. Looks very similar to trans fluid.

Taking inventory of some of my automotive fluids and I found a bottle of Prestone power steering fluid. Popped the top and it is clear.

Ok to add to the red I have, or is there a different brand/type I should be using to add to what's already in the pump? I have no idea what brand is in there - way back when I didn't used to pay attention to such things.

Chrysler had a P/S fluid available. As far as I know the factory did not want ATF in there. Remove the red stuff, and flush it, add correct (designated) P/S fluid. My 2 ¢.
