Checking Fluid Level
Fluid level is checked with top raised on G.M., Ford and American Motors (top down on Chrysler Prod.). Before removing fill plug to check level, place absorbent rags below reservoir to absorb any spillage. Fluid level should be at lower edge of filler plug hole. When adding fluid use type "A" "Dexron" automatic transmission fluid. On G.M. cars prior to 1968 use Delco No. 11 hydraulic brake fluid. After filling reservoir, raise and lower top several times to expel trapped air.
