Stupid plow.

Posted: January 23, 2012 in GMC truck

Well, I’ve fixed the hydraulic fluid leak, but now it  doesn’t work.  I replaced the O-rings and seals in the Meyers plow pump, put a new upper cover on the cylinder, and was all ready to plow after mounting it and filling with fluid today. 

Wrong.  Now it doesn’t build up pressure at all, so I was better off before when it leaked but at least it worked.  I’m at a loss now as to what to do, having followed the manual I downloaded, have no left-over parts.  I’ve spent so much I don’t want to throw in the towel, but I can’t really justify spending much more on it.  I’ll let it set for a couple of days untill the disappointment and frustration wears off, and tackle it again.
