Default power steering bleeding problem

hi guys. i have 2010 honda civic. the power steering pump recently had a leak started forming. it was hard to tell if was bad orings or the pump it self was bad. so i told my self to just replace the pump all together (190k miles on orignal pump, no maintance ever). so i bought a new pump from auto https://www.autozone.com/suspension-...409_0_0_240782

i took the old pump off and put the new one on with new Honda o rings. as i was bleeding the system. i took the return line off and flushed out all the old fluid. till new fluid started coming out. reconnected the return line and filled the reservoir back up. i started to bleed the system again and low behold. fluid comes squirting out on the top of the reservoir. i never had this problem before. i figure give it a shot and start the car. see if that would fix the problem. fluid still squirts out. i checked underneath the car. no leak at the pump. feed line was checked and no leaks either.

also the new pump is not squealing like a bat out of hell. i dont even hear it. its leading me to believe its a bad pump or maybe a bad reservoir
any help would be greatly appreciated, i been at this for 24hrs haha
