Steering problem

1992 Ford F150 V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic 198000 miles

----------------------------------------------------------------

I am hoping someone can help me with this problem. I have a Ford F150 4x4 with a 351M in it. About two weeks ago my Power Steering went out when turning to the right only. I checked the fluid level and it was low. I topped it off and started it up. I noticed that the pump started shooting fluid out the reservoir. I thought the pump went bad so I replaced with new. I completely flushed the system tell fluid came out clear. I bleed the system by lifting the front off the ground and turned wheel back and forth to stop position about 40 times. I checked fluid level and it was fine and showed no bubbles. I started the truck up and heard the pump start gurggling and seen that the fluid was again coming out the reservoir and looked real frothy.

Is there a valve somewhere else that could be bad that is causing the fluid to flow the backwards and shoot out the res? Any help would be great.

Thank you
