Hydraulics Question
Some help, please. I have a new problem. One of my hydraulic landing jacks extends itself a couple of inches after I retract it. It takes a few minutes for this to happen. I suppose that I have a leak in the associated hydraulic line. This is almost certain, since I get a small accumulation of fluid around the fittings.
This has happened once before and I tightened the fitting, solving the problem. But it has reoccurred. Probably this time it is the hose itself--that is, the "clamped" connections--not those that you can tighten with a wrench. So, I probably need to change out the hose. This looks like a non-trivial job. What do I have to remove to get at it. I can see the end in the battery compartment, but how do you get to the end on the piston for th leg?
