Can you see fluid movement in the reservoir when the engine is running? If so, the pump is moving fluid and your problem is likely in the steering box. It's highly unlikely to be the pump or lines - you already changed the pump and the hydraulic pressure is sufficient to blow through any "blockage" that may be in the lines.

If you changed the pump and had an air pocket in there, it's possible you're airbound. Try running the engine and turning the steering wheel lock to lock several times to "burp" the system.
