>> Hi Folks!
>>  I'm about to start a rebuild job on a steering gear box for my 65 Monza.

>> vat at the local machine shop, baked to remove the undercoating. Media
>> blasted and a second trip to the vat, just to be sure all the media dust
>> was
>>
>> removed.
>>  While I was out and about, I took a trip to the local NAPA store to ask
>> what kind of fluid goes in a manual steering box. Both the countermen and
>> some other patrons had a few suggestions, but nothing concrete.
>>  Neither the trusted Corsa Tech Guide, nor the 65 Corvair Shop Manual 
>> gave
>> a definate answer.
>>
>>  So, fellow VV'ers... any suggestions? And how much fluid?
