The only problem that I can find is the bucket drops or bleeds down fast. I'm trying to figure out If it is the tilt cyl. or a valve, etc. I've done the tests shown on this site (thank you everybody) ie, tilt the bucket up and ingage the aux. This not only dropped the bucket while tilting the bucket up, but also when ALL I do is ingage the aux.the bucket drops. The bucket also drops if I tilt the bucket up and drop the lift arms all the way down and keep pressure on the arms. Also, the bucket seems like it may have a little down pressure even when none of the controls are ingaged. Is this an easy tilt cyl. rebuild/replacement or do I have a valve problem? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks</p></blockquote><p></p>
