Howdy everyone I'm new to this forum and I have some questions about my 1949 8n. After rescuing this very original mint tractor from its 30 plus years resting in a barn I got it running when i first engaged the pto the lift went all the way up as did the control lever with it and hung I couldn't push the control lever down and it took 3 days for the lift to bleed off. After dealing the oil and filling the case with diesel I ran the lift arms under my 3/4 ton Chevy pickup and lifted it off the ground. After that the control lever would move so I pushed down slowly nothing happens I the again raised it and pushed down hard and fast the arms and truck dropped. After several times doing this the lift began working great in the draft control position but the position control refuses to work correctly as soon as I flip the position lever it jumps to 1/3 travel off the ground and then just moving the control lever 1 inch the lift goes to full top and then drifts down about 3 inches and stops. I can push the control lever down and it will go nearly all the way to its lowest position but within 2 minutes it will raise back to the 1/3 travel position. I have no position control it doesn't stop anywhere in between its all the way up or 1/3 away from bottom. Did replace the fliud with 303 transdraulic. Any answeres would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks James
