I hear your pain! Probably one of the best maintenance tips is to periodically flush the power steering system. I disconnect the return line from the pump, add a connector & another length of hose. This allows the fluid to reach a catch pan underneath. Using the correct fluid, have your trusty assistant start the vehicle & then you start pouring fluid into the pump. Try to keep it from running dry. Also turning the steering wheel to & fro helps to purge the old fluid. The fluid colour will always be black to start! The fluid is a GM spec as I recall & readily available.
