Message: <blockquote data-quote="mmsllc" data-source="post: 100229" data-attributes="member: 13117"><p>Well, the full skinny on this valve is that it was removed completely from the machine before I ever knew we could remove a few more panels from the machine & remove just the spools themselves. So, in removing the valve, it was thought best to in bolt the two (2) valve halves from each other to make the valve removal even possible with so many metal / steel hydraulic tubes that were in the way. During the removal four (4) or five (5) rubber O-rings fell out from between the two (2) halves of this valve. Then once we had the valve on the work bench, I removed the spools myself, replaced the spool seals & re-installed them back into their respective bores. After that, I handed the job off to the guy who removed the valve. After he was done, it did not leak hydraulic fluid anymore, but it also no longer worked as it should; meaning lifting, lowering & tilting. It was a bummer because of the overall amount of work involved with resealing the spools, ya know?? To make matters worse, my guy showed me a small piece of metal (that we could not identify) that he though for certain came out of the valve, somehow. So, I guess I either need another valve that hopefully has not been taken apart at all & is known to have worked good, or remove this entire valve again & compare what we did procedure wise to a repair manual for that valve. This particular machine is an old concrete machine & really looks like hell, but it used to run so perfect before this hydraulic leak appeared out of nowhere.</p></blockquote><p></p>
