Sounds like a leak and it's sucking in air and then whipping it to a foam in the pump. Ceck the connections you disturbed.

if system is drained, like w/ a hose change. As long as the system is leak tight, the foam and bubbles should clear after a few running cycles. If you cut the steering wheel all the way left and then all the way right a few times SLOWLY it helps to get the system bled out better. Recheck fluid levels in first few days as it flushes the air out.
