tilt issue. intermittent

Here is one for you guys. Normal hydraulics without a load. With a load, tilt back issues. 2k load. Counterbalance valves replaced. Sometimes it wont tilt back at all. Sounds like its in relief. Bump it forward then back and it works normal. Other times it will tilt back slowly and when handle to nuetral, it will drift all the way forward as if packings were faulty. Do it again and it works normal. Drift test passed. No movement at all with load. Waited 20 min. RV1 ruled out due to no problems with lift. Tilt spool valve issue?

While you are in there you may notice that a piece of something blocking the port occasionally or a piston coming loose and shifting back and forth.

Have you had the cylinders apart, it sounds like a bad seal.

Fact of the week
The dot-com bubble, a period of large and rapid investments in internet-based companies, peaked in 2000 and saw the Nasdaq Composite index rise by 579%. Then the bubble imploded. As the value of tech stocks plummeted, cash-strapped internet start-ups became worthless and collapsed.
