Thanks for your response. I like the tractor and definetly am not giving up on it. I have a lot of equipment around the house, including a 1940 ford tractor. I don't abuse it. The first mechanic that changed the pump thought someone had put gravel in resivoir. The pump he put in gave out when i hooked the rototiller up the following spirng. No rototilling. Just hooked it up and the pump blew. He charged me a lot to replace that pump - I thought he overcharged me. So I took it to a different mechanic, and he charged me less than 1/2 of what the first guy did. That pump has been in about 3 years. As I explained, this time, the flexible hose blew off, and I replaced the fluid with actual hydraulic fluid. As far as I know, the pump was working when I replaced the fluid. The tractor actually engaged forward for a brief second (actually less than a second). So I wonder now if the hydraulic fluid ruined the pump, or if the hydraulic fluid, which is less viscous than the oil, is simply not viscus enough to drive the tractor. Does that make sense, or am I off base. I will be doing the work myself, this time, which is why i have all the questions. MM
