Hi guys,
This is my 8 bore cylinder, with a 31 inch stroke again. I drained all the oil/water mix out of the lines, tank, and cylinder. I may possible take it apart myself and clean if it not too big of a job, but I cant tell who makes it.
I plan on making a log splitter out of it this fall.
My questions are:
Can anyone tell me the who makes this cylinder by the two ID marks in the picture? It looks like "Mi" with a circle around it?
As you can see it has crude on the inside of it, looks like a little rust, sludge, and dirt. What do I need to do to rebuild it? Do I need to hone it out and replace seals?
What gallon size tank do I need to make sure this runs cool? My estimates calculte that when fully extended or retracted, the cylinder holds 8 gallons of hydraulic fluid. Is a 25 gallon tank enough?
