    No reason to junk a car over a botched install, it happens. We've all done stupid sh*t at one time or another. Replace the low side line as Scotty said and call it a day. There is no need for a filter fyi. In fact it may become a source of restriction in the system at some point making the pump work harder than it should have to. Since you replaced everything in the system there should be no junk in it. Just drive and enjoy.

    Okay, update here. Had car towed back to my garage to work on. Replaced pos filter with a piece of hose, brass connector and some clamps. Bled the system again. Appears to be okay for now. Power steering definitely works but sometimes wonder if it should be a bit easier than it is.
