HI folks,
I have an old cable controlled western that says Isarmatic lift control MarkIIIA on the pump. It has been leaking where the hydraulic lines go into it so took that part off and noticed there were no gaskets in it. While I had that part off, for some stupid reason I hit the joystick and fluid shot out til I let go. It was working just fine before I took that part off. Now, it only will go up and down, even when I pull the stick left or right. Still goes up. There are 2 square 1/4 in bolts on the end I figured must be bleeders. Super tight! Took the vise grips to them and got the top one loose but the bottom one I finally gave up on since it kept rounding it off. Any clues as to what to do? Thanks very much, Doug
