Lancair started =0A adding return s= prings inside the spool valve for Legacy pumps in about =0A 2005.  = One of the consequences of doing this is what you have observed =0A in t= he hangar.  You sort of have a 'get out of jail free' card in that =0A= your hydraulic system has a three-way valve.  It doesn't prevent t= he =0A lock-up.  It just gives you a way out.  Folks installin= g the =0A 'Legacy' pump in 300 series plane with a two-way valve can get= stuck.  =0A Fortunately the springs are easily removed and Parker = has been providing the =0A parts free-of-charge to reset pumps back to t= he pre-2005 configuration.<= /div>

This =0A has happened to me even at the beginning of a fligh= t, if the temps in the =0A hangar have gone from cold on a previous day,= to warm on flight day.  I =0A guess cold temps shrink the fluid an= d suck more from the reservoir into the =0A lines, and when it warms, th= e pressure builds on both sides of the system, =0A so that the "up" and = "down" pressure switches are both open and the gear =0A won't move until= I pop the bleed valve.
