Sounds to me like the seals might be leaking on your tilt cylinders. Here is a simple way to test. Go to a hydraulic shop and get a plug the same size as the hoses on your tilt cylinder. Extend the tilt cylinder all the way out. Remove the hose from the rod end of the cylinder and plug the hose with the plug you bought. Place a bucket under the fitting on the cylinder. Start the tractor and try to extend the cylinder. Since it is already at the end of its travel it can't move. If a lot of oil comes out the port, then the seals are shot and the cylinder needs to be rebuilt or replaced. Hope this helps
