I "backed my ears" and removed the quadrent cover, both hydraulic remote valves, and the remote manifold to get to the pilot relief valve. It appears someone had been there before by the hammer marks on the head of the relief head (it was 1 1/8"). Cleaned it out, full of sludge. Also I found a check valve between the manifold and tractor housing, cleaned this as well. Crossed my fingers and put it all back together without new orings (lack of availability). I'll be derned, it worked and leaks less than before!! I need to re-oring the manifold. Also I am going to replace the relief in the future, it has serious oring wear.
I did not change the pump. After my 4 hour repair on the relief, I put 4 brand new tires and wheels on my trailer (Ford 6600 and loader makes a great floor jack) and loaded Old Red up. About 1.5 hours later and 12:30am this morning I made it home. 4:00am got up went to work, 6:00pm I got home... It has been a long one.
Thanks again, I appoligize for not posting progress pics. Ya'll know I like to post pics 8)
