Tilt issues

Good evening all.

My little 35SCTT is tilting forward all the time, almost like a stuck valve. From the outside, the valve looks like its working ok. When I pull the lever back, the mast will tilt back, but as soon as I let it go, it tilts forward again.

Anyone have any ideas before I pull the valve apart?

Thanks.

Yep, tilt cylinder seals bypassing would be most likely fault.
