Wellll.. Areation makes the fluid expand.. ya may wish to let it settle and try again. What are you using for fluid?

Ya don't provide any facts as to pump type / gearbox so we have to assume what ya got..

When installing a new pump you should never go lock to lock..

Hope that helps some?

Laters!
