if it's not pumping as soon as you loosen the banjo bolt try this... (just theorizing at this point)... kill the engine, fill the reservoir to the brim, or at least fill it as high as the pump... the pump may just need priming... if there is air at the pump fluid has to reach the vanes first... try priming before replacing the pump...

i know for a fact i ran mine dry for quite a while... it still works...
