[QUOTE="MikeHall, post: 100422, member: 15245"] I tell you what, I am almost border line embarrassed to tell you that I figured it out just about 10 minutes ago. Remember the new oil pressure gauge I installed? Well that gauge over on the right hand side with the hard line i thought was an oil pressure gauge. After looking for were it terminated into the engine without any luck I determined it was not hooked up anymore so I left that line open. Turns out that is a vacuum line for a vacuum gauge to tell when the hydraulic filter needs to be changed. I was sucking in air from that line the whole dang time. I put that gauge back on that line and instantly i had hydraulics again. The tilt is working as before but the lift is still a touch jumpy so it must still have air in the lines. I was not running the motor but at idle as I didn't want to be too loud for the neighbors. I knew it was going to be simple this is what happens when you give up and just start reading the service manual. All I saw was a gauge to tell when filter needed to be changed and the light bulk in my head turned on. hahaha [/QUOTE]
