As a kid it was a common sight to hear/see/smell missing, back firing or dead vehicles on the road. Jumper cables were a must have. Engines would quit in rainy weather. Engines vapour locked in hot weather. Gasoline engines & vehicles wore out fast. A gasser with 100,000 miles without a rebuild was uncommon & on borrowed time. Plugs, points, oil filter/changes, stuck exhaust cross over valves, air filter changes took time & $$$ every 3000 miles. Now engines start at -40 just by turning the key and without touching the gas pedal. The engines don't stall either when starting away cold. Oil/filter changes are at 10,000 miles, ignition systems go 100,000 miles and the only item to service are the plugs. Air filters go 10-30,000 miles. Mileage and power has more than doubled on the same size vehicle. Even the tires last longer at 30,40 thousand instead of being bald at 10,000 miles. I don't miss the good old days. An ODD II scanner which will find most problems. Costs about the same as a good dinner out and a show for two.

This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
