[QUOTE="Motordoc, post: 3290, member: 446"] Hello all......... New to the site and can say I really find the forum very informative........great discussions and information. My issue is related to the lift arms drifting down slowly; the problem seems more noticeable without a load in the bucket. I lift the arms/bucket and go to neutral on the pedal and the bucket lowers at a rate of approximately 1" per 3 seconds. I checked my manual and the trouble shooting section indicates that there is a seal leak in one of the valves. Other than the drift, the lift arms work great with plenty of lifting force and no visible fluid leaks anywhere. This makes me believe that I do have a valve leak issue internal to the valve body. So......my question(s), has anyone else dealt with this lift arm drift issue and can I rely on the simple seal fix to resolve the problem? Thanks in advance for the input. Albert [/QUOTE]
