Mitsubishi FG18N:
Cannot pick up load without acceleration.

I have a fg18 unit that is having trouble picking up a load without stepping on the gas. I can lift the forks fine without a load. Hydraulic oil and filter are new. Any ideas?

Inspect the throttle butterfly, it might be dirty and not getting sufficient air at low idle.

Do you happen to know where the pump would be in this unit. I tried looking up a schematic but couldn't find anything.
