Thanks for the link. I’m not at a place where I can access the link, but I will review it tonight. None of the other hydraulic connections are being used at this time so there is plenty of oil for the three-point lift. Let me mention that none of the control levers move easier nor harder once the problem started.
I called a parts yard yesterday and they handed the telephone to a mechanic/customer that walked in the door that has some experience with Leylands. The mechanic suggested pulling off the arms at the tops and remove the top cover. He stated the valve on the top is sticking. I don’t have any pictures so I can’t say for certain that I know exactly what to see once looking in the top. The mechanic went on to state that there is a split-ring as part of the valve assembly and it is likely binding which prevents the valve from changing once the linkage is moved and hence the lift is absent. He went on to state that I should remove the split ring and I need a magnet for something. Maybe that is to retrieve the split ring once I drop it in the oil. My target is to tackle this approach Saturday morning. Any suggestions prior to then are appreciated.
