I bought a steering valve off a New Idea Uni combine to use to convert my 1977 Kubota B7100 to power steering. I can't find any info about the valve, it had a decal on the bottom but it was painted over and trying to remove the paint removed all info. The problem I have is that when I hook up the pressure and return lines, I get zero oil out of the 2 ports that go to the steering cylinder (when I turn the steering wheel). There is oil flowing through the valve, at least coming out of the return line. I took a similar sized steering valve off one of my Dads payloaders, hooked it up the same way and it worked fine.
Any idea as to why this valve won't work? Could it be a simple fix? Something I'm overlooking?
I can probably take it back but its an hour or so drive one way and not positive if they will give me any trouble swapping it for another.
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
