Hi there
Ive just got myself a toyota forklift, she is very old but engine is all good. She has a 6 cylinder and can lift 3.5t. One problem when the engine is in idle the hydraulics dont work. You have to rev the engine a fair amount for the steering to work or move the forks. Is this a hydraulic pump issue. It has been sat without use for 2 years so my first plan of attack it to clean it all up and do an oil change.
