seems like a good price to me.

How much?

That sucks!!

it has an inline filter and also im using a napa 1759 spin on filter--it is pretty big--10 microns i think

The pump was the culprit. Also the love joy connection on the motor side had a crack in it so I replaced that too. I am going to replace the valve body with a 2 way detent valve since It won't be long tell that goes since there are fine metal flakes coming from it when I took off the hose. I...

Since it had some moisture to begin with in it, the moisture from inside is cooking out of it and coming out from the ends of the wood giving it a higher reading--that is if you checked it on the ends both times.

^^^^Right I was thinking red oak but was just asking to make sure.

What kind of wood?

ash? nice picture!

I have a Honda GX390 (13 h.p) which has a 22 gpm pump on there now and I wanted to know if it could handle a 28 gpm pump? Limitation is the valve control is can only handle 25gpm. Would I notice 3 gpm? I also was thinking that when the control valve goes bad (20 years old now) I would upgrade...

I did open up the pressure relief valve in the control valve. The spring was not broken. I inspected and clean that area too. I increased the pressure relief valve to maximum pressure and no change on the gauge. The change only came when pressure was decreased. I returned it to the original...

I installed the gauge on the high pressure side of the pump and on the stroke forward after the valve body. Both show when under max pressure when splitting a log 475 psi. I am leaning towards that the pump is bad. I did fine very fine metal flakes in the hydro oil. Is there anything else I'm...

I am not sure this would be the case b/c the motor does bog a little in the forward or return stroke at the end of the stroke--I would think if there wasn't a key there would be no bogging at the end of the stroke but I could be incorrect. I am sorta leaning towards the pressure valve and or...

Ok so what I did so far was opened both pressure relief valves on the pump and valve control to make sure there wasn't any debris in there. I bought a pressure gauge that I will install tomorrow and install it in different locations to check pressure throughout the system. I also did a...

Can you explain a sheared key on the coupler? The coupler on the control valve?

It just seems like the last two times I used my splitter it cycles 2 times slower than normal and there isn't the splitter power it used to have. I thought maybe the filter was clogged so I replaced it and it didn't change anything. Fluid levels are full. The weather temperature has been in the...

Wow thats a big round! What kind of tree is that? Elm?

Yes--punky wood is a form of rotten wood and is in the process of getting unusable. When I think of rotten wood I think wet as a sponge, unsplittable and one could kick it and it would break apart very easily. This is wood I have on my property which fell and have been laying on the ground...

Where in MN? Can I help shoot some deer there?

Well the stuff I'm splitting isn't in chunks and not wet. It splits well. When I think of rotten I thing wet and unsplittable.
