Komatsu PC-120-6 61000+ SN. At cold start up relief (Or at least pressure is good) around 5000PSI, After warm up pressures start to decline, eventually to about 3400PSI. Stage 2 relief (Swing brake, heavy lift. travel) does not create any more pressure hot or cold. I have tested all pressures in manual, (control pres, LS, PPC, PC etc etc) Even over adjusting these one way or the other trying to get some type of variance in main pressure to no avail. When testing LS pressure differential pressure it is about 300psi differential as it should be, however during the test(see attachment) Instead of getting Pump Pres= 1150 PSI and servo inlet =640 psi I am getting about 2300Psi pump and 2000 Psi for servo inlet. I cant make any sense out of that or if it even relates to low press. There is not a spec for case drain from the pump as in most other machines, however I checked it and in about 10 seconds got about a gallon of oil from case drain and that is just starting machine, I didnt even get to the point of putting the pump under load. So either this pump is bypassing pretty bad or that much case drain is normal for this pump for reasons I am not failure with like some control valve returning through same port on pump IDK. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
