Ford 2110 Hydraulic issues

Any port you can apply pressure to, will work.

Thanks

make sure you have a 3000 or so, psi gauge. nothing under that. and notheing too big or it will be ahrd to read real pressure. IE.. no 10k gauges..e tc.

I finally took a pressure reading today. 2,200 psi at the rear remote. I went ahead and changed the fluid and filter. I am still having the same problem. Any ideas? Also, as soon as I shut the engine down, the 3 pt drops (load or no load). Seems like it should take a little while to leak down???

I had a 2110, but also had similar models and can't remember if there was a suction screen on it for the hydraulics . Look at a parts drawing online and if it has one it's under a 3 bolt cover on the side of the transmission.

If you are reading 2200 psi at the remotes and the lift drops quickly when the tractor is turned off, it sure sounds like a leaky lift cylinder seal. I would reseal that lift cylinder (easy to get to right under your seat) and then see what happens. To test the lift cylinder, raise the lift all the way up and then turn your drop speed adjustment to off (clockwise). If the lift still drops, it's most likely the seal. There's a remote chance that the high pressure relief in the cylinder is stuck open or leaking, but that's a remote possibility. It sounds like you just have worn out lift cylinder seals.

Already took it off and cleaned.

Thanks allot. I will go check. Is the lift cylinder seals o-rings? gaskets?

3 pt dropping after engine is shut off could be leaking rockshaft piston seals as previously stated or RS control valves leaking or thermal relief valve leaking.

Just turned the drop speed off and it still dropped.
