Hey guys have a ford 550 backhoe that I've had for 4 years that haven't had any major issues with. Having transmission problems now, had the 4 speed shuttle shift power reversing transmission that doesn't want to move very well. Ran great untill it sat for 8 months doing various minor repairs to it. It will go into forwards and reverse but acts bearly moves. Found a clogged cooler at the radiator so I bypassed it and changed the fluid and filter ran great after that for a few days. Fires it up same issue moves forward and back but barely even if I pin it, changed the filter again and ran great. Sat for a few days same issue barely will move so I put 2 bottles of seafoam hydratrans tune and would run great again. Sat for about 2 months and it's doing it again, changed the filter with no improvement. Lift the machine up and tired spin both directions under power but barely moves the machine. Does anyone have any advice? Thinking maybe clogged pick up screen from sitting. Is there anyone here that knows these transmissions well?
