    I'm an aircraft mechanic for a living, I know how to fix just about anything, my problem is finding a good diagram of the internals of a two stage splitter pump.
    I don't know what to open up to get to the valve that controls the speed, google and youtube hasn't been much help.
    Anybody have a good source, I understand it's a simple fix, just not sure to what

    Attached is info for a typical 2-stage log splitter pump. If there is only high pressure/low flow the ball check on the bypass may be stuck open or the spring for the bypass adjustment may be broken.
    Click on wood splitter pumps.
