[QUOTE=bhaxel;178712] There is probably an oil pressure relief valve somewhere (maybe in or near the oil pump) and it sounds like that valve is stuck.55 - 75 PSI sounds high to me, but I don't know for sure... [/QUOTE]

Thanks for responding. Unfortunately I was not more complete.

There are 2 spring loaded valves within the filter mounting block assembly. Both units were operational the last time I checked. The regulating valve has been changed with no improvement in the condition.

Although there are no abnormal sounds with the unit running, I am going to pull the valve cover and see if I am getting oil on top. I suspect I have a blocked passage somewhere.

Hi Everyone,<br>
<br>
My up/down valve has not felt right since i purchased this tractor in the spring. I could not get the Float position to work. It seemed to stick in the 'Up' position. I had checked the linkages and lubed them up -. It still had a catch to it on the up side. <br>
<br>
This weekend it jammed in the closed position. Can't raise or lower. It's not the external linkages. The valve shaft won't move. Of course the front wheels were off the ground at the time....<br>
<br>
I'm not sure how the float action works but it seems to related to this. I assume the float mechanism has jammed the valve. It appears to be an internal thing. Do I need to take the valve assembly off and disassemble? what do you expect I'll find?<br>
<br>
There is a plug right beside the "Up/Down' valve. I have not looked inside yet but is this the float mechanism?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any help.<br>
