Hello,
I am having problems with my 1998 Honda Civic LX. The power steering pump is noisy and fluid backing up over flowing out of the reservoir.
I replace the pump but, still doing the same thing (Backing up out of the reservoir.)
New pump works good until fluid warms up.
I am using the Honda power steering fluid.
I have searched for an answer and asked around and have failed to find a solution to this problem.
Any advice or possible answer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

The fluid is getting aerated for some reason. I have had this problem before and it turned out to be a hole in the line between the reservoir and the pump. It will draw air into the system that way.
