    B2320 Loader valve behaving badly

    The loader operated better with the hoses disconnected. Performance improvements remained when reconnected. This is why I'm thinking there is more than one root cause, and planning to pull apart the linkage next.

    B2320 Loader valve behaving badly

    Update: There was plenty of flow. Also removed & cleaned the male-side quick connects. Responsiveness has definitely improved, but not perfect, so maybe there was a small amount of trash impeding flow that is now gone. I think my next step will be to get into the joystick linkages, which...

    B2320 Loader valve behaving badly

    I'm following you. Since I already know I have difficulty raising AND lowering at high engine rpm, I suppose I need to check flow in both directions on both male couplers? I'll give this a try and advise.

    Here are a couple of pics of the coupler arrangement. Boom is operated through white and yellow couplers.

    B2320 Loader valve behaving badly

    Thanks, Dan. I've previously tried swapping female couplers, without any change in performance. Since the problem seems to be independent of the attachment (happens with both FEL and front mount snowblower), I suppose the next step would be to check the tractor-mounted male couplers for...

    B2320 Loader valve behaving badly

    Hi all, New to the forum, with a problem that has bothered me for a while. The loader valve on my B2320 becomes increasingly difficult to operate the higher the engine rpm. This problem only occurs in the lift/lower function, dump/curl works just fine at all rpms. Specifically, up to around...
