On my 72 the canister has a small indentation that shows how high it needs to 
be. When the fluid goes low it starts to suck in air causing the oil to froth 
up.

1/2 from th top "should" be ok unless you have air in the pipes. 

Is that 1/2 from the top in idle?

-------------- Original message -------------- 
Fluid level is about 1/2" from the top of the reservoir. Not sure how full it 
is supposed to be.

Well you mentioned stopped & low speeds. Mine makes a ratteling sound and the 
whole column vibrates when I run low on power steering fluid. I suppose if the 
cover is loose or it's near something it could rattle against it making that 
noise.

Worth checking out. It's right on top and easy to get to.
