Also getting a whinning noise under hood but dosent change when i turn the wheel back an fourth
Yes, Peter Z. is right! You can try some clean, fresh fluid, but whether it helps is iffy. Siphon out the old fluid-a turkey baster works great, avoid fluid on painted surfaces, and store baster with tools, not where the Mrs. might inadvertently try to grease the turkey,lol. If the problem continues, it could be the pump, but dirty fluid is pretty bad for the rack and pinion gear also.

it sounds like you've got a really bad leak in a hose/pump/reservoir
plus, power steering fluid isn't the greatest for cleaning the engine with ;)
Keep an eye on the serpentine belt, b/c the leaking fluid might eat it up and cause premature failure.

There is a loud squeak on the front of my 1991 ls 400. The squeak is near the alternator. Any one no what it is?
SOURCE: my power steering pump makes a growling noise even
Does it make the growling noise when the fluid is at the correct level? If it does, the noise is a warning that your power steering pump needs to be replaced.

the fluid could be burnt and the filter may need to change. You would aslo need to check the air in your tires to see if one of the front tires is low on air, then the next thing would be to check to see if a brake caliper is sticking.
