Finally got my used splitter modified and running right, or so I thought.
The splitter has an older Speeco valve that I'm pretty sure is really an Energy valve.
Initially the detent worked fine. I started to notice it was becoming a bit harder to set into detent, Suddenly I had a pressure spike to 2500 plus on the return as the ram retracted fully, then the return hose blew.
I'm not sure where the operating pressure is set, but splitting ash today, I never saw anything over 900.
I had to manually kick out the return detent or the pressure would spike every time. Any idea on what causes this
Is it something to do with the relief adjustment?
