Hi new here was goin to see if any one had this problem before Have a l3450dt 4x4 owned it for 10 years never needed remote hyd but now I do so I bought log splitter valve with 4 way open center on this tractor below hyd pump there's a block one line goes too 3pt control under seat other two go to steering colum for power steering it has 3 ports blocked off 2 are pressured one is not (bumped motor over with plugs out) so I plumbed 2 hoses one pressure and one return a and b ports on spool valve go to remote quick connects tried it out on grain drill Picks up very slow until 3pt lever is raised also when spool valve is centered 3 pt will not lift untill spool valve is moved any input would be great thanks Power beyond valve maybe ???
L3450 problem with homemade remotes

L3200DT w/FEL, K650 Backhoe, 5' Rotary, 40" Howard Rotavator, 6' Rhino blade
If I could not figure it out I would run the remotes in series with the 3PH and see if that works.
I have a FEL on my L3200, and the dealer put my remotes in series with the FEL valve lines.
On my old L185 there was a block by the left hand side of the seat that covered the hydraulics lines. It was internally drilled and welded to allow flow through the lines. When I got remote hydraulics with it, they replaced the block with a new one that had 3/8" NTP ports instead of being drilled for flow through the block.
Best of luck!

I agree with gpreuss that oil should flow through the remote hyd valve while traveling to the 3 pt valve IE attached in series not parallel
the 3 ports are pressure from pump, power beyond, and return to tank.
it sounds as though you hooked your new valve between pressure from pump and return to tank. you need pressure from pump and power beyond. take note that using a non power beyond valve in this manner will work but it is adding the new load to the existing load, which means it may be easy for you to start hitting the pressure relief setting.
i assume your block looks similiar to this pic
