OK after pulling cover and re-doing o-rings and pulling check
valve, and safety valve washer - still have bobbing and drifting
down. Priced safety valve and control valve - both over $100 now
from CHN.
So finally did what I should have from the beginning and removed
the PTO cover. Main piston not showing any leaks. But got a stream
of oil coming out from front of cylinder body, assuming it is from
the control valve also seeing some leakage at back of control valve
that drips off of the control rod.
Will post some pictures along with this - not sure if or how to post
movie clip but I have one I could.... Picture will not show it but the
stream of oil hiccups (assuming it is when the lift bobs). And in the
one clip I have it looks like a little oil may be coming out of the
back of the unload valve when I see the hiccup. But that is nothing
compared to large stream of oil in front and dripping in the back.
Of course I can not see the front cover very well just see the stream
of oil.
OK now for the questions.
Looks like I need to pull the control valve and bushing. What do I
need to do that. (What size bolt to screw it and pull it - and how do
I remove the bushing - (socket and press?)
Next question - appears that there are really three different control
valves. Do I remove mine and find the color and then order one
from CHN - - or can I just order a matching color of bushing and
valve from CHN ahead of time.
Next question - while I am there - do I pull the unload valve - - if
so what bolt size do I need to pull that and once I get the plug out
what do I need to push the unload valve out.
Sorry a little wordy - but trying to paint the picture so you can help
me.
