My [emoji[emoji6][emoji6]][emoji[emoji6][emoji6]] Ford [emoji[emoji6][emoji6]][emoji[emoji6][emoji6]] will no doubt that either. I think back then the manufacturer played things safe and set pressures low so people don’t break them.

You mean it wont dump and lift the front end? Have you tried giving it a bit of throttle?

I have owned it a few years and now the curl wont lift the tractor. When it curls the boom raises. It just started not working a couple days ago.

Sounds like one or both bucket cylinders is leaking internally.

The bucket cylinders are good, it will curl but when it does the boom cylinders back off, maybe thee boom cylinders are bleeding off????

It sounds like you have the lift spool locked in the float position. Try pulling back on the lift to release it and then try the bucket.

It is not in float mode. It also wont stay in float mode.

I read your post as bucket not lifting tractor, but loader is limp or floating; got it.
Since it won't stay in float, is it possible the spool has some broken parts in the end cap?
Other question is does the loader hold in position when it is raised off of the ground?

When boom is up it stays there, no bleed off. Very strong lifting. I took the joystick cover off and turned the set screw 3 turns in and no difference, then 3 turns out, then 6 turns in and out and no difference. None of the cylinders leak. Is there an adjustment on the pump.
