power steering fluid foaming

A friend of mine has a 70 chevelle with a Grand Cherokee box,Type II pump,remote res.After driving 10-15 minutes the pump is whining and fluid is badly foamed.All AN fittings and braided lines except return into pump just a clamp.Bled several times no better.Any Ideas?

it is due to the airation in the remote res, if you change to a LEE remote res it will cure the problem.

I agree. Also make sure he's using good quality ps fluid, not auto trans fluid like the "old days".........

Capacity is too small on the remote res or the return is in the wrong spot.

you still sell the reservoir you sold me? That worked great on mine, no noise and no aeration.

we have a bunch being made now. Made a couple production changes but otherwise they are still the same. Should have them ready to go after SEMA
