Power Steering issue
Just got the Camaro up and running yesterday. Drives great! Except for the steering is awkward and the pump is noisy. The pump was fine before I started the rebuild. It was low on fluid so we filled it, a day later and it's no better. Is there a way to bleed these?

the only way that I am aware of is too get the front end jacked up high so the front tires are hanging...then since you are already there...do a complete drain/refill(don't have a suction device? the lower low pressure hose slips off very easily(haha don't ask) to drain)...refill and then start the car...slowly turn the wheel lock to lock several times...checkin the fluid level...this should hopefully flush any air bubbles....
take it for a test drive to see any improvement and if the process needs to be repeated... hope this provides the (fix) so you can get that 506/482 to the street! peace
