Well i got a Cat 225 excavator serial number 76u03978. Problem is one of the travel hydraulic motors is not getting full flow of pressure. Making machine turn as it drives. I know alot of people are going to say it the swivel. Nope i already rebuilt it. How about the hydraulic pumps, been there done that got the t shirt. Both have been rebuilt. Reason you make ask, one pump went out. Nice brass metal all in system. Yep i cleaned it all out, oil is clean now. Machine has no other issues all other functions work great. Just the right track motor not getting full flow. "When sitting in cab track right under me, with motors in rear of machine. I think its like the hydraulis control valve not opening.
If your wondering why someone would do all this. I got the machine for free. Today with only issue one track slow. I have $3,000 in it parts. So a fun project. Thanks for any help you can give.
