Ford 1520 Hydraulic problem.
Well, I'm rather embarrassed to admit that I found the "sudden problem" I had. The position of my additional vlalve had completely slipped my mind. Its under my seat, and i guess it had been so long since I had used it, it never entered my mind. And it's not spring return. 🤪 But anyway, it's... -

Regarding the trash, very well could have come from the previously mentioned log splitter. But I'll get it cleaned up and see. I checked that website out and they do have a choice of 2 pumps, but at this point, maybe just a seal kit which I didn't notice. I'll look around. -

No, it's a metal strainer, but built as a non serviceable screw on. I just took my new replacement off to double check it(different brand), and it's a metal mesh also. Anyway, my pump looks a lot better than I had expected. I don't believe it warrants replacing just yet. I've seen inside lots... -

Yea. Oil on dipstick looks good too. That "filter" is a strainer. It's been a very long time since I had changed it. I might guess that it's sized large enough to allow the oil to slow down enough to let everything settle out in it. And that trash has been accumulating for a while. The oil... -

My valve definitely has O & S, which I connected to. The 3rd port doesn't seem to have a legible marking. They seem to match up with T & P from a previous drawing -

Oh my. Just got home, haven read recent posts yet, but will as soon as I sit down for the evening. I had capped the aux line connections(S & O) off in anticipation of checking some pressures. And I had a spare filter, so I changed it thinking I'd try it again. But I cut the filter 1st. Seems... -

Well, it's worked for years the way its currently plumbed. It's possible that it's plumbed "incorrectly" due to me using a closed center valve I had on hand, rather than buying the "correct" open center one. Again, I'm not sure and out of town until Friday. -

Well currently, I've forgotten where I put my manuals - including service 😂 No, we have not concluded anything about the pump. Other than a slow degradation over time of the lift arm performance. Then going from that functionality to almost nothing thevsame day. Worked in the morning. Tractor... -

I never left it in the deadhead condition while in operation. But possible that the little rotary selector was slightly out of position. But not fully. For sure. Looking forward to later this week -

I'll report later in the week, as I'm working from memory and it's been years since I hooked everything up. And it was somewhat trial and error then. I had/have a simple hydraulic cylinder operated by a spring return valve. But nothing is currently hooked up other than the valve which I... -

No loader in my case. Perhaps your right about the operation of that valve. I don't remember any position indicator on the rotary selector. It was a bit of hit/miss. When I have the top link cylinder, I had to operate the lift arms in conjunction with the lever for the cylinder. Had something... -

The relief valve is on the underside of that block. The spring and o ring were fine, and no dirt or trash. I'm out of town for a few days, but will be working on this when I get back. I'll look closer for the connection markings. As far as what's hooked to them? I have a couple of wet line...
