Anyone have experience with the eBay aftermarket hydraulic cylinders?

I replaced cylinder seals due to a small leak. After wards the bucket will slowly drift down. I assumed it was the piston seal because it was so hard to get on. I figured I stretched it too much. I replaced the piston seal a second time and still same problem. Any thoughts?

Does anyone know what this fan is for? It’s under the right side plastic cowling. It doesn’t run and was unplugged. Any ideas?

Can anyone offer instructions for replacement of the ACS handle rubber boot? Can’t find anything online.

How do I access the chain case on my 642? Think I have a loose chain or maybe a worn sprocket. When I'm really digging and need power the right side will jump like maybe the chain is slipping on the sprocket. I do have a service manual but it's not much help. Can't seem to see where the chain...

Can anyone tell me where to find the PDF for my 1.6 ford in my 642. I'm looking for info on valve adjustment.
