1953 Ford NAA Hydraulics Problem

53NAA · Jul 18, 2016

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help with a 53 Ford NAA hydraulics problem. Fluid pressure to the valve body is good up to 6 inches from the ram cylinder but hydraulic fluid is not going through the rest of the way. Tested the lift with an air hose and it works, so I'm not sure what the problem is. Thanks!

Good chance the unloader valve is sticking and if it does it will cause problems like your having

here is the '6 inches away' point that at which you are measuring? And what is that pressure?

[/quote]he 6 inches away is between the pressure port and test port. If I connect a hose from the top of the pressure port to the test port the fluid will flow through and the hydraulics will work but the fluid is not getting there internally.
