Ok... dumb question probably....
I sprung a leak on one of the supply side hoses to my backhoe control valve. Machine is off, nothing happens, machine is ON, I got a steady though currently small, stream of fluid blowing out of this hose.
My bucket will droop and the boom will drift to one side, so I am going to use this crawling under to fix my hose, as an opportunity to take the valve assembly off and rebuild it.
The dealer says the "typical" rebuild is only "O" rings. My luck usually doesnt' run that way, but fingers are crossed.
Anyone have an interest in my taking pics of the process and posting them here?
(know upfront, the basic parts ordered yesterday, take week to get in, week to do perhaps, then couple days to get film back)
So we're not talking stories by this weekend.
I'm sure it'll be a VERY messy job, so I figured I'd not venture under there with camera unless someone wants to see what's happening. (going under to only REMOVE valve block...I'll rebuild it off machine).
