Picked up the Newell today.....Jake works again! The solenoids were working but the Jakes were not engaging. Turned out the oil tubes connecting both Jakes were leaking, therefore not pressurizing and activating. Leo had to pull the valve covers off to take care of the leaks. In retrospect I think only one Jake had been working all these years, because now when the Jake engages it really slows down fast! I only have a one stage Jake, so both sides are on, or not. So happy!
