I have a 2000 ZX3. Problem, when turning right there is a noise, almost like a gear whine. I would guess it's the pump because it doesn't start untill the steering is loaded up, then dissappears when you hold a turn or straighten out. I will try and bleed the system tonight. Anyone have any thoughts on this. Thanks

Noisy power steering pumps are very typical for Ford. Ignore it. Turn up the music.
