2940 jd hydraulic s

[bemurr]

Have a used JD 2940 4x4
Issue w/ hydraulics: generally work fine however after several hrs run time :
(4+), hydraulics start to chatter/shudder, gradually lose hydraulic control/power. Seems to leak fluid out weep hole in underbelly. Ideas, repair reality, cost estimates would be much appreciated. Thanks

How long since hyd filter was changed and sump screen checked/cleaned?? Those era tractors have a history of supply tubes to hyd hi-lo & ind pto leaking.
