Hi, my name is Mark and I'm a new member from the UK. I have owned a Ford 3000 for nine years but have always had a issue with the hydraulics. Lifting the three point linkage is a nightmare that has become progressively worse. At first it lifted and held, albeit slowly, but after a time it would take an age to lift. By that, I mean I would put the lever into lift position and it would take 10-15 minutes to activate. Now, in the winter it never lifts and in the summer it will only lift after the tractor has been running some considerable time and the weather is hot. I'm not particularly mechanically minded and would appreciate any possible answers and assistance. Thanks
