on my 370 is fluctuating. It won’t hold steady pressure. The needle goes up and drops back down. It starts out ok then I lose pressure. If someone could help me out l would really appreciate it.

Check your unloader valve (pressure regulator). May have debris, broken o- ring or just worn out

Just had to do the same on my cat 3cp. Pulled the unloader apart, flushed it. Regreased the o rings and the spring and it's working as good as new. Sometimes it's just a warning of something worse to come. I am ordering a repair kit that includes the piston, spring, backing plate, o rings, etc. Although it doesn't look like I have a lot of wear on it, sometimes you just can't see it. it
