1972 Cutlass Convertible moving very slow
I have a nice 72 Cutlass Supreme with a very slow moving convertible. Does anyone have experience with this problem. I haven't discovered any leaks, and I have not thorn the system apart (yet). My suspicion is worn cylinders or perhaps the pump. The pump sounds OK but slows down a little during operation, as if it encounters heavy load. Any advice?

Sorry for posting this. I did some searches before and could not find anything on convertible problems. Once I posted this I immediately found another thread that gave me enough to go on. Please disregard this thread.

Re: 1972 Cutlass Convertible moving very slow
possible restriction in your lines or cylinders??.. they are easy to take apart and clean..can be kinda messy but..might solve your problem.. When I rebuilt my system I just bit the bullet and bought all new "stuff"...any problems solved...that was 25 yrs ago and it continues to work as new today..

Thanks!
Since I posted I oiled all joints in the convertible and it looks as if it helped a little bit.
I guess I will be spending this weekend going over the lines and cylinders. 
Will update here if I have luck
