4 culprits. 4 fixes. Do it yourself.


THE PROBLEMS:

Low oil level — starving your system of pressure

Dirty filter — choking flow before it even starts

Air in the system — causing spongy, inconsistent movement

Worn pump — losing pressure where it counts most

THE FIXES:

Check oil level — top it off, check for leaks while you’re there

Replace the filter — cheap fix, massive performance difference

Bleed the air — takes 20 minutes, saves your whole day

Inspect hoses — cracks and weak connections kill pressure fast
