The rear hydraulics work great -- a 50 gallon tank of liquid will stay up forever but the 430 bucket on the FEL will bleed down without anything in it within 5 minutes and while the FEL will normally bleed down in a few hours, it now droops in 30 minutes. With a bucket full of crusher run and using the joy stick to tilt it up, it will often drop down a half foot (bucket AND FEL).
Before having the dealer pick up what has been an outstandingly dependable tractor for the past 8+ years, I am curious what some of you might think the problem could be -- perhaps the selector valve? [I am always a little paranoid about having anyone work on cars, tractors, mowers, etc. unless I have an idea ahead of time as to the problem -- don't want a dealer explain that the framus on the muffler bearing needed replacing at only $4000;-) ]
Selector valve or ??? (IF valving, can it be rebuilt or does it need to be replaced or should it be replaced?)
Thanks,
