I have a 555 that has been a reliable and trouble free companion (until yesterday). I was moving some rocks some distance. (lots of driving in 3rd gear at fairly heavy throttle)
Worked fine. I put it in 4th gear to go a little faster and it worked OK too, but didn't seem like a good idea to be trying to go uphill in 4th gear. Then it started to go slower like it wasn't pulling as good. Then it started to go really slow and finally wouldn't move more than a crawl in any gear. I crawled a little way and shut it off. After sitting for 10 minutes it would move normally again. I am worried that some screen is clogged or something is wrong with the tranny. New fluid at correct level. New spin on filter when I got the tractor a year ago and haven't used it enough to need a new filter I wouldn't think. Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this and keep this from happening again?
