.............................well it aint so much limp anymore.

l had packing issues in my wrist cylinder and have had it repacked.

However, i noticed when i had the hoses uncoupled and fired up the engine it was running oil out of both hoses to the wrist cylinder, which i dont think is supposed to happen.

Now (hoses reconnected) when i curl the bucket up to the stick with the stick in a vertical postion it stays there (before it would creep down). When i push the bucket out it will not stay there it will creep down to a neutral postion (in a postion the bucket would hang with no cylinder) in about 20-25 secs.

Has some crud, stuck something open? lve got no clue where to start the hunt!

Cheers All.
