The older two hoes, the press could have been higher, I had an amp meter wired in thru the plug... cyls moving - 1.1, no movement - 2.1amp.

Your due dillengence has paid off & benifited all of us. Thank you.
You are welcome Joe. The info you gave me on the rpm to shoot for is what made me try the rc4wd 80T so, thank you too.

You might not have been feeding the voltage and load that the motor operates at the most efficiently. I started out by feeding the motor 7.2 volts and when the cylinder speed wasn't fast enough I kept raising the voltage in small amounts until I found the most speed, least pressure & least current draw... The sweet spot for this motor, pump & fluid was around 8.3 volts, .5 amps and about 190psi.
