PS pump whining. Fluid full. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Pump was completely drained when I replaced the motor. I filled the pump before first start up. Reservoir is full but the pump still whines while turning and the wheel is very choppy. Almost like I have air in the lines. Is there any way to bleed the system to the and fix it?

I think I found the answer to what I need to do with working the air out of the lines. Now to see if it actually works.

Mechanics usually recommend turning the wheel left full turn then right and repeat a few times to get the air out. Also fill it with Redline powersteering fluid for added protection.
