Stuff like pumps and compressors are always better to spend the extra cash on a new unit. Either Ford or another manufacturer. Sounds like you'll have to bite the bullet and wait or exchange it and hope for the best.

I had that same problem with a reman pump from Autozone a while back. I put it on and it was REALLY loud. I just took it off and got another one.

the biggest problem here is that fluid breaks down under pressure. a typical PS system averages around 900psi.
after years and years of turning, the fluid isnt worth a ****. just changing the pump and resevoir only gets rid of about 50% of the fluid. as soon as you start that car, you've contaminated the new fluid and it breaks it down fast.

www.bgfindashop.com

find a shop with a BG power steering flush machine and go from there.

I've heard that Ford p/s units are also just plain noisy as well, especially reman units

Are you sure you bled it properly? You should be able to see when you get mot of the air bubbles out of the line. And if you don't do it right, then you're gonna get that annoying sound.
