[QUOTE="ard, post: 53814, member: 7237"] My tilt cylinder works and has power in both directions. However, the cylinder wont hold its position (both directions) even if not loaded. I would assume the cylinder is leaking internally. Could it be some other fault ? I plan to test as follows: disconnect return (down) line from the cylinder and provide pressure to the up line. In case oil came out, the cylinder is leaking internally, then i will order a new seal kit. Is that the correct way to test ? (I never worked with hydraulics before) [/QUOTE]
