Hi guys, I recently replaced my P/S pump in my 2000 Jeep XJ, along with the lines, reservoir, steering box, and steering box spacer. I bled the system by jacking up the front tires, and slowly turning the wheels. The P/S fluid level foamed up, and after 10 or 15 minutes stopped moving up and down and leveled off. I topped off the fluid, and called it good. The pump now whines when making sharp turns, even though it has been bled. Did I do the bleeding process incorrectly, or could I have gotten a dud.

 

New or rebuilt pump?

 

Rebuilt A-1 Cardone

 

Same problem here. I will be warranting the pump out tomorrow. Maybe Ill have better luck with that one.

 

What kind of oil did you put in it. It is not supposed to foam

 

 

Your saying it foamed still bothers me

 

 

OK, that is different than foaming which would indicate the wrong oil
