Default slow moving rams?

ok my converted bruder excavator has developed a problem the rams all move slow, the power is there and the pump is spinning fast to fast but the movement seems to be slow and in time with the pump.

im using the magome hrc kit and and a flysky radio. in the thing. been working really good for a while now starting to be a problem any help? or idea what can be causing this? and i'm still in search for something other than anti freeze to run as hydraulic fluid.

I could be wrong but just thinking seems like the antifreeze would get sticky over time ,Mabey drain it out try running some ISO 22 or 32 Lightweight hyd oil may free it up just a thought

the big thing is how thin is it? i think thats why mangom hrc use antifreeze because its thin, but i don't think antifreeze had enough "hardness" to it or lubes enough because
it will still let the little brass gears wear out after a while, and i use my excavator about
every weekend.

Would ATF be ok? or is it too thin as well?

I would highly recommend to use the right hydraulic fluid with this, ISO 22 or 32 hydraulic fluid should be used. I use the them fluid in my excavator. ATF is not the right think either.

I think it will be a got idea to change out o-rings and then fill up with the ISO32. Premacon, Scaleart or Leimbach sale ISO 22 or 15 for this application.

I got some O-Rings as well for my valve body steam a few months a go and they come only in a bulk of 100. Now I have enough for many years.

update:
the oild worked great in my dump trucks, but not good at all in the excavator.
it just gummed up the works, and after a few days made it move slower and with less power...? anyway going back to antfreeze for now, unless i can find something even thinner, this oil has to be as thin as water no bulk to the oil at all !
