[QUOTE="roadkill, post: 3434, member: 543"] I don't have any gauges (or caps, I know the caps would be cheap) to test the pressure and I don't see any leaks. It sounds like the control block seals would be the most difficult but the least expensive and most probable culprits. As long as I can catch and reuse the hyd fluid. (I hate making messes). The “dealer” said around $50 for 5 gals. And they're about 40 miles away. And $75 an hour is a bit much. Ken, I appreciate the info on diagnosing, unfortunately I don't have the tools. It's really not that usable the way it is, so I'm gonna have to jump into it. I may try to rewire the lights. Someone rewired them separately, but I guess that's another thread. There are actually a few empty holes in the dash. This old 743 could spawn a whole mess of threads. She's 19 years old, after all.
