Little food for thought. If you replace your power steering pump, and it's not working correctly, and you have spent 4+ trying to bleed out air bubbles.

GET NEW HOSE CLAMPS!!!!

That solved my problem after endless hours of bleeding the system and changing the fluid 3+ times.

So it went from 20% to 50% to now 100%?
:D

Glad I didn't waste time replacing the brand new pump I just installed lol
