I just purchased a MF40. Needed to drain and fill hydraulic fluid due to water contamination. Tractor was driving fine until I tried to go up a 40 degree paved hill. The tractor basically stopped in low gear. Engine sounded labored and had to turn tractor around because it did not have enough power to go up hill in low or high gear. When going down hill I could gradually slow down the tractor with brakes fully applied. Continued to drive on level ground and slowly began to loose speed while giving gas. When I depressed gas pedal I noticed that the tractor stopped fairly quick. I went in reverse thinking the brake are stuck. Then was able to move forward a little better but quickly started to slow down in high rpm. I basically had to stop and go for 600yrds to get it back to its parking place.
Any thoughts?
