I have an older maybe 15 years old LP powered Yale forklift I use at my hobby shop. When I found it/bought it a year ago the previous owner said the engine was locked up. I got it home and worked the flywheel back and forth and got it to turn over. I was even able to get it running with no knocks or noises. Here it is a year later being used 2-3 times a week and it started making a whine noise while lifting which seemed slower and over a few days completely lost all hydraulic action to the mast. I do hear the whine noise and it gets louder with engine rpm. No movement on the mast whatsoever at any engine speed BUT I do have steering ( with the whine in sync with the turning of wheel). It sounds like the hydraulic pump is low on fluid but it is full of fluid and it looks aerated. I changed the filter and still did it. First thought was the hyd pump went bad and maybe that what was locked up a year ago. Any Yale gurus out there have any tips before I pull the hyd pump? Thanks
