You are right in that it usually is the orings/backup rings around the control valves that are the most common three point leak.
My MAIN idea in my posting was to get Ken to make sure his pump was the cause of his problems. You and I can argue all day about the fine details of each other's postings. You see break downs in TX that I don't see here. I have repairs that you don't see there.
As far as the AT21781 thermostatic control valve. I must not be the only one needing them. John Deere still has them in the warehouse and you can still buy one. If they never sold one then they would drop the part.
Also the "thermostatic control valve" is just a pressure relief valve. Temperature will not open it unless you have the lift piston clear full of hydraulic oil and heat makes the oil expand therefore building pressure.
As far as JD stocking a AT21781 valve that is no indicator it's a fast moving or regular selling part. JD stocks 2 cyl parts that I'll bet aren't daily sellers. I never indicated no valves were sold as I replaced some as a cautionary thing so as not to have to "re-lick the calve" JD named the valve thermostatic not me. And yes heat can cause it to open hence I guess it's JD NAME. They're are several dairies in Tx that feed large sq's of Alfalfa. I've got a large dairy just 3 miles from me.
Finally I totally agree it's much better to diagnose the hyd system that throw high $$$ pumps at it.

One of the great things about working on a tractor engine with your other half is that you know what he is thinking of at all times and can anticipate his every move and his next thought of what he will do. With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I�m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I�ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I�ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see.
