Well I was able to open up the valve and cleaned it out. The screen was a little gunky but not too bad, but it could have been plugging up those small holes at the end of the screen. I also cleaned up the inside of the piston chamber as best that I could but I could not for the life of me get the part with the ball in it to come out. I made a small spanner wrench to unscrew the ball valve but I couldn’t get it to unscrew! I bent the tool which was hardened steel, but it didn’t budge. I did push on the ball and oil came out and I cleaned it all with carb cleaner and the ball seemed to be doing its job and holding even the thin carb cleaner behind it. It wasn’t rusty so I put it back together. As soon as it stops raining for more then 1 day I will be able to try it out in the field and see if its working right now. I also adjusted the draft control which was set wrong and causing the 2pt hitch to be pressurized when it was all the way up. But I know I wasn’t running it all the way up when the problem occurred. At least it’s cleaned up and adjusted right, Ill let you know if it keeps happening.
