power steering pump noises ?
I installed a rebuilt power steering pump a year ago and noises never cleared up. I have fluid in the pump and bled the air out,but the sounds keep coming from the pump sounds like its starving loud noises? I wonder if I have a bad rebuild any ideas??

Grinding, squealing, growling????
You need to be more descriptive.
No doubt you could have got a bad rebuild.
The stock pumps are known for making noise.
This makes the van/saginaw pump a popular conversion.

Hi Jim,
Yes the sound from the pump sounds are squealing and growling. The sounds are driving me nuts. Maybe the pump is a defect, but if the saginaw pump is quieter I'll take the loss and buy the one you recommend. Thanks Terry
