Default Loud power steering

So I had to drain the power steering fluid from the bottom high pressure line. I have bleed the system from the pump and added a half bottle of Lucas additive. The pump is still very loud at idle. To bleed I have just been bleeding from the steering box and turning the wheel all the way twice. I still can't seem to quiet the pump though. Is there anything else I can do?

Have you read your Rave CD for guidance, sounds like your pump still has air in it.

Yes I'm following the rave procedure I will try to put another quart through. I am using regular (not synthetic fluid) with a half bottle of lucas if that matters.

I finally got all the air out, I had to pour another quart through. Funny my wife cranked the wheel hard and I got a face full of fluid.
