Well, I pulled the pump and replaced the o-rings on the flow control valve sleeve. I really didn't see anything that jumped out at me to help determine what was wrong. The o-rings on the flow control valve sleeve looked worn so I decided to change them but other than the o-rings I didn't notice anything wrong in the relief valve area. So, I completely disassembled the relief valve, cleaned it up, put it all back together, and put the pump back in the tractor. Then when I started the Tractor I did notice a difference but only slightly. The best way I can explain the change is that if I tried to turn the steering wheel quickly, I noticed no difference. If I turned the wheel slowly I noticed more power assist in the steering. I Hope that makes sense. If I turned slowly it would just slowly turn the tires with little effort. If I tried to hurry the turn, I really got no assist. I really don't know where to go from here, if there is a direction for me to go. I fear that my pump is shot. Is there a single test to determine if my pump is shot? Or a test to show that it is good? I hate to purchase a PS pump and install it only to find out my old pump was still good and have another issue to fix on top of it. Anybody have any ideas or insight? Have I done all the tests I can do or should do? Please help, Tod.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
