Discussion:
Carriage and Mast Drift down slowly.

The carriage and mast drift down slowly, it's very noticeable. I have checked the return filter no signs of contamination. The mast drifts from max lift to the ground slowly. I removed the valve and have checked CV1,CV2, PVL, reliefs 1 &2. There were no signs of contamination in the valve. The springs all had good tension and not sticking. It has to be something valve related due to it still drifting with the battery unplugged. I cant see it being all three cylinders bypassing, at least I would'nt think so.

Has anyone encountered this before? Any guidance would be appreciated.
