Got an unusual question I'm hoping you all can help with. While in float, does anyone know if a hydraulic motor (char-lynn) would have more parasitic drag on it if the hydraulic pump is turned on or off? Currently I have a setup like this where I put the valve controlling the motor in float and turn the hydraulic pump off (has a clutch on the pulley). I'm considering going to a constant flow pump so I don't have to worry about turning the pump on and off all the time. I don't need the motor creating any more parasitic drag though, it needs to be as free as possible. Would having the pump on/off affect this? Thanks,
Justin
