Replaced Steering Hose, Now Pump Sounds AWFUL???

My power steering pressure hose was leaking, so I bought an OEM relacement and new Al washer. The bolts were hard to get out, but I eventually got them. Actually, the Pressure Port Union loosened when I removed the Union Bolt, but I torqued everything back to spec (except the pressure feed, but I don't think it's leaking).

Well, I bled it per FSM (twice), but it sounds terrible when I turn the wheel at idle. Any ideas what went wrong? It never made noise before. I refilled with Castrol Domestic Multi-Vehicle AFT Dextron III/Mercon. WTH?????
