Default Re: slow bucket on excavator?

Yep get it all rinsed out with water. Take it from a mechanic oil and antifreeze do not mix as you just found out the hard way. When you refill the system use automotive antifreeze as it has lubricants and anti corrosive agents in it and it is just as safe as the RV antifreeze.

ya i shouldof know better. being a car guy and a few blown head gaskets and turbo blowups . i gotten oild in the antifreeze, i should on known that was going to happen. i got it all cleaned out. now the problem i had with the bucket has moved to th stick. pushing the ram is crazy strong but pulling it really weak. i adjusted all the servos to go full throw but it dosen't seem to fix the problem..

ok this is a case of leave well enough alone lol
