Yes, you need the PB sleeve for that valve. Ptsg is correct.

Would I be able to replace my diverter valve with this one here?

Yours is a priority valve that has a diverter to enable changing flow. It is for your power steering. It makes sure there is always flow for the power steering. The diverter part only changes what is left after power steering to the port that feeds your loader or 3 point.

When I install new hoses do I need to let hydraulic fluid flow with the hose off to get air out or is that not necessary?

 

[K5lwq]

It should self Purge the air out. You will need to work the cylinders fully in each direction to get all the air out of the system.

Thank you, this weekend I’ll be getting new hoses and the new loader valve installed.. will keep you posted as to how it works

Could a wrong hydraulic filter installed be restricting my flow?

 

[K5lwq]

It is possible. What are you seeing?

 

[AviEst1995]

I was just thinking maybe that it had the wrong filter on it and I then replaced it with a similar incompatible filter and that’s the cause for low flow test. But would that similarly cause the lack of pressure?
