Cannot seem to stall the engine

So at no time has the tractor been in 4th or a faster gear and worked the engine enough to lugg it down and stall?

Any difference when the trans is hot vs. cool?
ALWAYS - COLD IS WAY MORE POWER THAN HOT

Ah, Ha........pointing more towards an reverser problem.

THAT SINCE i ADJUSTED IT - I ADJUSTED IT JUST ENOUGH TO ALLOW THE PTO TO ENGAGE.

Important to obtain free play or the clutch and/or throw out bearing will be ruined. Sounds like there maybe plenty of free play but.....

Two stage foot clutch and the pto is not engaged via a hydraulic lever between the two gear shifters. Eliminates one source of trans leaks.

Has anybody greased the foot clutch recently?
NOT SURE WHAT THAT MEANS - IS THERE A NIPPLE?

The throw out bearing and shaft receive vital lube with a wee and I mean wee shot of grease. Just enough to lube it according to the operator's manual.
There is a grease fitting for the steering close by too iirc.
1-800-522-7448 for the operator's manual.

There is a pressure regulator on the trans pump outlet. Plus a divert valve that sends trans oil to priority lubrication and brake loads if trans pressure falls.
Either or both valves can become jammed with dirt or a run away oil filter o'ring gasket.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE THOSE ARE...MIGHT HAVE A JD GUY WITH TIME TO LOOK AT IT FRIDAY MORNING...HE'S NOT SURE...

Trans oil lines can split or shake off if the trans valves start hammering from plugged filers. Even somebody at the factory was perhaps having a bad day installing them.

Have him bring trans gauges and the service manual.

What kind of trans oil?
JD BRAND (THIS TIME - LAST YEAR IT WAS NAPA)

I hope the NAPA oil said "wet clutch compatible" on the side of the pail?

How does the tractor do operating a heavy pto load?
NO KNOWN PROBLEM WITH PTO LOAD

Good news

ITS ROUGH GROUND AND I'M NOT EASY ON EQUIPMENT...

Oh............Well......please try to take an extra moment on occasion to think through a course of action. This in the long run will take less time and cost less $$$.

Today's Featured Article - Memories of an IH Super A When I was ? up to 10, I worked on my Papaw's farm in Greeneville, TN every summer. As I grew older (7), it was the thrill of my day to ride or drive on the tractor. My Papaw had a 1954 IH Super A that he bought to replace a Cub. My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to ... [Read Article]
