AHS 1,563 #1 Posted October 24 Moderators, I don’t know if this is in the right place, place it where it is, please. It’s about my auto lift leaking again and again! I had the valve rebuilt by PRC. It leaked the same place it did before i got it rebuilt! It leaks out of the hole behind the push/pull lever is. The owner before me put a U-bolt in the lever to the push rod… so i know that someone has been here before me!! Help would surely be appreciative!! Time for a new valve? Hairline crack?? I don’t know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 62,223 #2 Posted October 24 If you paid to have it rebuilt I would take it back to them. If they can't or won't fix it get a good used on from Lincoln at A to Z. https://www.a-ztractor.com/ 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,752 #4 Posted October 25 Something we did when we come across situations like this is we would make sure the area is clean but a good blow of air would leave just enough oil on the surface to stick talcum power to the area. Then start it up and watch for the leak. It will wash off the powder so the leak location is visible. Probably icing sugar would also work. Any fine dry power. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s not just like a small leak, it’s a half the floorboard in a minute type deal! Ive got plenty of O-rings, i mean… im trying my hardest to figure it out!!
