Helo again the battery works and the car has more power then ever. It is working great. I have another question about my 77 olds delta 88. The steering feels funny like it can't steer right. It feels difficult when I turn. The steering fluid is low and that might be the reason it doesn't turn right, I mean it turns both ways. It's just difficult.

Certainly fill the fluid.

IT may be a hydrolic problem as in the pump or rack, or it may be a mechanical problem such as strut mounts, ball joints etc.

Does it make any noise?

May need to jack it up and disconnect the outer tie rods and see if the wheels are still hard to turn, this will eliminate the rack/pump, if it doesn't turn easy. If it does, then your into a hydrolic problem.
