I have the same problems with my MF 255. I am now on my third power steering pump. In my case, I am adding to the problem by having a front end loader on the tractor which puts added stress on the power steering.
I haven"t found any alternative to just replacing the pump. When I took one of the old ones apart, it is made of aluminum and apparently the vanes get worn and there is no way to get it back where the pressure is what you need.
There is one thing you can try short of replacement. Take the reservoir off and turn the pressure screw in. That "might" help. If anyone else has a fix method I sure would like to know.
Even buying a pump from one of the aftermarket suppliers is expensive--around $300 or so.
