I developed a pretty good leak yesterday while mowing and ran the resivor low. Removed the leaking hyd line (went to a coupler I wasn't using) and plugged it. Refilled and everything worked good. Today while tedding I had to keep bumping my hyd lever to drop my outer stars back down (must be bypassing the levers somehow). Before long my steering started to get tight, hurried up and swapped tractors. Got looking at it tonight and I can barely lift the 3 pt, won't raise the haybine only rock the cyl. Steering is still tight at all RPM's. Possible bad relief valve? Or worse?
When I got the tractor the previous owner removed the loader but not the power beyond plug. With help from here we found it was still installed so I removed it. The relief valve is turned in tight (one of the checks before we found the plug). Thoughts??
