How do I top up the power steering fluid in a Rover SD1 V8?  Where is the reservoir? Will any power steering fluid do?  Many thanks?

The pump has the reservoir built into it.  Remove the black cap and you will see that it has the dip stick built in.  I have always used ATF in the TR8/SD1 pump.  Some people recommend the Lucas power steering pump fluid, but I don't know where to get it.  If you need any parts, I have a complete SD1 subframe and power steering rack in the basement gathering dust.
