Just for giggles was looking at autozones repair info on the hydro boost system which my truck has and read something that has me worried now. Here is what it brake hydraulic system uses brake fluid only, while the power steering and Hydro-Boost systems use power steering fluid only. Don't mix the two.
So what do i need to put in the master cylinder when it gets low? Someone please tell me brake fluid, cause if you say power steering fluid then I have SCREWED up, and put brake fluid in it and may be the reason I am having brake issues now!

The hydro boost runs of the power steering pump and uses ps fluid. The master cylinder still uses brake fluid which goes to the wheel cylinders. 2 separate systems combined into 1 unit.
