First let me thank everybody with their replies and help on my pump getting to hot. After I replumed it that stopped but nothing moves when the controls are operated. So I sat down and thought about it from when I started working on it. When I first put it on and cranked up the tractor it would lift slowly but would not go down. If you pushed the control to lower it would still raise. I had to turn the tractor off then it would lower with the control. The bucket cylinder would work in and out but slowly and I would have to open up the throddle to get this to work. It was puking foamy fluid out of the filler so I said air leak. I took apart every connection and put sealer on it and tighned them up. Cranked the tractor and it had enough pressure then that it blew out the old seal on the pump shaft! Went every where and they all said to old no parts replace. So I did. Now with a good pump and connections I decided to tackle the control issue. I found a diasgram for the exact control valve I had. Well i took it apart and replaced the o-rings on the controls, rebuilt the handle bushings and linkage ect. Then I found in the valve on the side somebody had a bolt in the spring so the round plate and ball could not move. I removed that. Second thing aafter looking at the diagram the I belive relief valve on the back side of the valve was missing the ball and spring. Well I got a ball and guessed at the spring. Now after all of that it won't do anything. So I think my problem is in that control valve system but I don't know what. I'm going to do some more investigating and put everything back like it was and see what happens. Ant ideas? I'm not going to let this thing get the best of me! Thanks everybody again.
