I recently replaced my power steering pump and bled the system. The pump winds and makes a high pitched hum when driving, so I bled the pump again- With pump cap fastened I lifted the front end with engine off and turned the wheel back and forth about 30 times then I put cardboard under tires and sat it on the ground and turned the engine on and turned the wheel back and forth about 50 times.Afterwards I look at the pump and Power steering fluid has leeked out onto the ground and fluid inside the resevoir looks frothy. I believe the fluid is leaking from the cap but it is hard to tell(you can barely see the pump under th AC compressor and brackets). So then I take the car for a drive and it still hums and when I turn the wheel all the way and it makes a loud pop sound. It does not sound good.
Does anyone know what might be the problem?
Thanks
