Internally there was a small O-ring on the shaft for the handle. That O-ring was being extruded out of the valve between the shaft and housing. It got pretty shredded in the process. Every time the dump valve was actuated a drop of hydraulic fluid could be found outside the housing hanging from the shaft. Over the span of a year, between annuals, the back side of my upholstery got soaked with 5606. Ironically, the high pressure replacement from Lancair had an internal leak in one direction. Replacement #2 from a local Parker dealer solved that problem. Chris Chris Zavatson N91CZ 360std www.N91CZ.com
