[QUOTE="cmb7684, post: 67634, member: 1698"] I still have to try to loop the aux hydraulics and the stems but I'm just completely lost as to what is wrong. Tracking my hydraulic lines comparing to the diagram the dealer provided for my serial number, I found that my aux and my tilt lines were crossed although they did not actually cross so in order to put them like they are shown in the diagram I had to put one under the other and cross them to swap how they connect. I sis do on the rubber lines where they connect to the steel tubes on the boom as the rubber lines come out of the engine compartment. After I swapped them I cranked up the machine and gave it a try. Still have the same issue. The pedal on the left makes the boom barely raise but will let it come down as it was when the hoses were connected the other way. The boom will not raise from any pedal movement but when aux is engaged and I flip the switch on the lever it will raise the boom up if I flip the switch either way but then will not let it down. To let it down I have to either pull the red lever by the throttle or step on the pedal to lower as it should. Also, I think the bucker tilt is working backwards but I have to make sure of that. I have no idea what would happen if I hooked up something to the aux. Anyway after driving it around a little bit and working it on picking up some cement just to see what would happen she blew the tilt cylinder seal and shortly after blew the other lift arm seal. So now that I have rebuilt the other lift arm, I have to do the other lift arm and now the tilt cylinder. While I realize both seals were old and the thing has been setting up it seems like they are getting pressure build up and blowing the seals due to pressure. Tazza, i'm going to try the methods you suggest before pulling the whole valve out of the machine but I'm getting close to throwing in the towel that it is a crack in the valve itself. I looked at the valve. Old machinist posted a pic of the valve on my machine in another thread. First if I get a length of hydraulic hose, where am I trying to run it from and too? On what ports and one I do this what am I trying to accomplish and would I need to run the aux or would it be automatic that I would be able to tell? [/QUOTE]
