I spoke with the manufacturer and decided it couldn't have a high to low, or low to high leak within the pump. It had to be either the emergency valve or one of the cylinders. The problem was a seal in my nose gear actuator cylinder. They are fairly easy to repair. Bill Kennedy >I'll get it up on jacks and try to sort it out.
