Additional Notes

  • Across all five engine variants of the Ford Granada Mk I (EU) — the 1.7, 2.0, 2.3, 2.6, and 3.0 HC — the power steering system capacity is listed at 1.3 liters under normal use conditions.
  • The steering gear capacity is recorded at 0.22 liters for every engine variant in the 1972-1977 range, a figure that reflects the relatively small fluid volume held within the steering gear housing itself rather than the broader hydraulic circuit.
  • The separation of power steering and steering gear into two distinct capacity entries indicates the specifications account for both the hydraulic pump and reservoir circuit at 1.3 liters and the steering gear unit at 0.22 liters as independent service points.
  • The 1.3-liter power steering capacity applies uniformly across engine displacements ranging from 1.7 to 3.0 liters, meaning the hydraulic assist system was not scaled in fluid volume relative to engine size across the HC family.
  • All capacity figures across every engine variant and both service points are designated for normal use conditions, with no separate severe-use or first-change-only intervals listed in the specifications.
