To replace the Power Steering lines on a 1994 Lumina sedan, first, ensure the engine is off and the vehicle is safely elevated. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent any electrical issues. Use a wrench to carefully remove the old power steering lines, starting with the high-pressure line followed by the low-pressure line, and ensure to catch any fluid in a container. Install the new lines by reversing the removal process, ensuring all connections are tight, and then refill the power steering fluid before checking for leaks.
Many ways, 1) you remove belt, lines and then fluid and when replacing power steering fluid after fitting back lines & belt.. you jack car off ground and rotate steering wheel left to right until bubbles have stopped 2) Block lines, remove belt and remove pump..when replacing pump attached lines and just fill reservoir and attach belt..No need to bleed because no air was allowed in line.

The power steering lines run between the power steering pump and the rack and pinion.
the power steering is leaking were the lines run inside the boot on the driver side
possible air in the brake lines.
Yes, power steering can be removed from a vehicle, but it requires careful consideration and modifications. Doing so will involve replacing the power steering pump, removing associated lines, and possibly adjusting the steering rack. However, this can lead to increased steering effort, making the vehicle less comfortable to drive. It's generally recommended to consult with a professional mechanic before proceeding with such modifications.
Very Carefully
Sounds like air in the brake lines or power steering fluid in the brake system instead of brake fluid.
Installing power steering requires purchasing a new steering rack, pump, and lines. The system has to have a power steering capable rack installed, the reservoir and lines need to be placed comfortably in the engine bay. After installation the system will need to the bled.
Remove the belt from the pump. Disconnect the lines and drain the fluid into a container. Unbolt and remove the pump. Using a puller, remove the pulley from the power steering pump. Mount the pulley to the new pump. Reverse procedure to install.
A procedure is a subroutine that can be called from another part of the program. Procedures can be as small as 2 lines (the definition line, and then the procedure itself), or consist of hundreds of lines.
I replaced a power steering pump on a Jeep Cherokee a while back, and it too whined for a while. I suspect it is normal until all the air has worked its way out of the lines, because after a day or two, all was fine.
