Question strange resivour

my 87 has too many resivours...coolant overflow, washer solvent(front and rear), and there is one on the passenger side right by the firewall. Probably sound stupid but it smells like ps fluid, color similer too, all i know is its kind of low...any help?

this is the cold assist, for helping on cold days, it is acually suppose to be coolant (antifreeze) which is injected into the intake when cold starting, you can take it out if you want, too me the idea of injecting water into my intake does really sound appealing, but hea if it never worked it would have been put there.

Just to clarity some misinformation, its for the Sub-Zero Start Assist, and it doesn't activate unless the oil temp drops below 3degF, which should give you an idea of how useless it is. Even Mazda suggest removing it.
