I installed a reman power steering pump yesterday. I had seal leaks with the old one.
Even with the old one with fluid to proper levels i had a whine. Not terrible but its there. Now with the new one i have the same whine. Seems as if my leaks are fixed. At first, I had not googled it and used agr's instructions on how to bleed the system. I filled it up, started it and added as needed.
Last nite i left it off. jacked it up and turned the wheels etc and pumped the brakes. My brakes seem fine and it steers fine. Just noisy. If its air will it bleed itseld out? I thought about taking the return hose from hydroboost and sticking it into a jug, then adding 2 quarts as to flush more and bleed it too. I assume this would also bleed it?
any help appreciated.
