You described the setup perfectly...one hose to each cylinder...push lever and up the bucket goes....lifted some big stuff, too... never really went down well unless you had significant weight on it, otherwise it would just go down nice and slow...with only the buck weight, it was actually very slow...but it did go down...now it does NOT go down at all and in fact sort of creeps upward real slow...only way to lower the bucket now is to shut tractor off and then when you pull the lever the bucket goes down as fast as you want it to...
Understand what you are saying about blocking one port and running both cylinders off the other port... even if the controller is designed to work two cylinders simultaineously, that seems like a good fix....and maybe if there is a problem with an internal o ring or such, maybe one port will let the bucket drop better than the other...just really hate the thought of tearing something apart that handles that much pressure not knowing what it should look like inside... Thank, will try replumbing the outlets tomorrow!!!
