Power steering pump internal pressure
Where does the pressure come from inside a power steering pump?? Drive just a couple miles and it spits the oil out the top of the pump. Probably a puddle on cement,,, plate size,,, in a couple few minutes. Pump may have been run dry once when a steering sector seal leaked and I drove it Arm Strong steering for a while,,,couldnt pour enough fluid in it and didnt have time to fix. new pump???other fix?? Advice??

If you just did the repair today..on the first refill...you get alot of air chuned up in the oil causing an overflow condition if you put too much oil too fast. Allow the oil to settle....add slowly while idling..you should be fine.
