I just purchased a 1982 Hiranger 5FI 52PHI, everything works fine from the base, the guy I bought from lent the truck to a friend, blew a hose, replaced and added aw46 fluid, since then bucket controls are slow or even don't operate, I see the handle at the base move just not all the way. what i did notice is the tubing seems soft not hard like on the 48phI that i borrowed from a neighbor, could this be the real problem, soft tubing expanding and not allowing valve to open? thanks
