I am not familiar with that machine but most machines depend on a detent ball and spring in the valve. These can and do break or wear out.

Does that machine actually have a "float function"?
I dont think my late 1990's lx865 does. (I think there was an option for it ... maybe?)

I have a 753 and mines doing the same thing. I did pedal adjustments to try and gain more stroke forward with no luck. Just had my spools out so I know the spring and balls are in there.

Maybe just really need to push on it to get it in but I'm fearing I will break something if I push too hard.

Did you have luck getting it to work?
