Hey guy, some of you hydrostat guys like Allen in Ne or some of the rest of you, I need to ask a question. I have a 198 series Dig-It,(really is the name),made by Yazoo/Pug Power Corp in Misissippi TLB backhoe and loader with a 2 cyl 18 hp opposed Kohler engine and hydrostatic transmission. The question I have is every time it travels in forward or reverse direction I get a loud squalling sound like a relief valve bypassing. It does it in forward or reverse and it seems to have equal power either way, not sure if it has all the power it is supposed to as it has been doing this since I got it. Do hydrostats always make a noise like this as they are used? If not, any suggestions? Changed oil and filter in the transmission soon after I got it. The hydraulics are a seperate system, and use 15-40 engine oil instead of the Dexeron II ATF that the hydrostat uses.
