Me again. My Fords use a cast iron housing for the lift piston. The piston has a rubber o-ring and a fibrous or metallic back up washer to help the o-ring hold the 2500 lbs. The piston is aluminum. If the lift has been idle for a long time, the water in the system could have rusted the interior of the cylinder causing pitting and making a seal near impossible. I'd take the hydraulics apart and assess the damage. A quick check of the system is to raise a load (however heavy you can get) and shut off the tractor. How long does it take for the system to bleed down is an indication of what I am talking about. It should hold for days, if new, really bad would be a complete leak down in a matter of minutes. I didn't consider water in the fluid when I responded.
