power steering not working?

[driftfx1]

k i'm having a problem with power steering. I had found a leak on the high pressure hose, so I replaced with the one on my parts car. Well now i bled it and everything but still is hard what am i doing wrong????

the way i did it:

step 1. take high pressure hose off pump and rack
step 2. put new line on
step 3. take return hose off of pump bracket, and bleed until no bubbles
step 4. connect hose to pump bracket and turn wheel back and forth

i'm lost or is my pump just no good????

power steering not working

I have 02 LS1 in a 40 ford. I have a aftermarket pump with a mustang power rack. I started the motor up and had power steering but after driving 1 mile it was gone. What can I do.


Thanks

If there's no power steering fluid in the pump anymore check around where you attach the hose to the pump, if that's not stripped and properly attached fluid will leak there and obviously will lose your power steering! (I've had this happen to me before)

Old thread but...did you plugged in the connector on your steering pump? Mine was hard until I realize it was disconnected.
