Question 3 door power steering pump

today my 3 door threw its belt off. so i bought a new one and fitted it.The pump is now noisey and the belt seems to be bouncing on the top between both pulleys... on full lock it squeels and the steering wheel feels like its trying to push back against the directing that your turning it(the belt is tight before you suggest that!) is this common??? i've topped up the resovoir and the pump doesnt seem quite as noisey... but still not right....will this improve any more or do i change it???? open to suggestions.... how much is another pump?? anyone got one?? cheers tony
