Hello All, my 135 was struggling to lift on the link arms and nothing obvious wrong, so I've gone for a repair kit in a 'replace everything' overhaul. I also obtained a new control valve which is of the type attached to this message and different from the original.
The actual 'body' with the o-rings fitted fine, once I had drilled the filter arm for the small dowels, but I can find no mention anywhere of how to fit the long spring (salvaged from the original) - the only video I can find from 'Tractor Parts Dog' does not appear to use the spring at all. The AGCO diagrams are not clear - can anyone help please?

Hi Chris.
Can you post a picture of the old valve and the spring that you are talking about, just to clarify the correct part. From my understanding you are fitting a MK 2 valve into a MK 1 pump?, please feel free to give me a call my number is in the journal under Technical.
Sandy.
