Welcome to HEF Randle;)!

In the future, try to include the machine serial number when inquiring for advice.

My new to me John Deere 317g is very weak in the curl down position and can barely lift itself off the ground even at full throttle. Wondering if I need to do a calibration and if so what the process?

Serial number 1t0317gjtlj385930

Welcome to HEF Advancedtool;)!

Kudos for posting a serial number. Next time though, start a fresh thread.

If you partially dump your bucket while it is off the ground, then boom down, will the machine lift off the ground, or will the bucket curl back instead?

Check your messages, I'll send you the calibration procedure. Try that first.
EDIT: I just saw you have a thread started. We'll move there.
