I had a mechanic come and look at it two years ago. The hydraulics got weak, there was a rattling sound in the clutch housing, and the power steering and everything was very slow. He said that there was water in the oil (the rattling noise was water going through the pump) and helped me drain all of the fluid out and refill it. He also flow and load tested it out of the rear remotes. He hooked up the machine, put load on the system, and waited until the fluid heated up. Afterwards, we drained it all out and let it sit empty for a few days and then refilled it. The rattling is still there, but seems to get a little better each time we change out the oil. He said that the pump seemed to be putting out a little less pressure than it should, but that it was probably due to a slightly weakened valve in the hydraulic system. He showed me where the valve was (when sitting on the tractor seat, it is on the right hand side of the cast housing where the seat sits on and the hydraulic levers go into; there are two plugs there and the valves are inside of them) Does this sound correct? What do these valves do, and could this be the cause of the problem?
