The power top on my '69 has always (for as long as I've owned it) been slow to lift out of the well. Starting this spring it needs help to get about 1/4 of the way up and then it manages to go the rest of the way on it's own. Does this indicate a weak pump, leaking cylinders or some other problem?
Any help / ideas are appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Hank

Probably just a little low on fluid. Top off the pump with ATF.
