Thank you.

Thanks for the reply.

Thank you.

Thanks for the question. I think you are correct, however, what matters is that the fluid gunks up the works of most "regular" tire pressure gauges.

Thanks. I've tried that but seem to get a lot of liquid (washer fluid) spitting out of the valve. Maybe I need to let more bleed out.

Has anyone come across a decent gauge for reading pressure on loaded tires? I can seem to find one that is easy to read and accurate. Thanks.

Well its been awhile since I posted about this and I have had time to use the tractor in several different types of weather conditions. Very cold to very hot. I thought that I would share my findings in the hope it would help out someone else with an HST. Here is what I discovered. The...

The tractor has the original R4 tires, loaded. This feels like something has changed. Thanks.

Wow. Thank you for the detailed response. I'm going to have to order a service manual so I can dig in to this more. I have a lot to learn but as with most things, I usually prefer to do the work myself - so your comments are very helpful. John

I imagine that its possible that something in the reverse logic is causing this issue. Hoping for something more simple. It will surge in reverse at any speed and all ranges. The engine sound and rpm never changes. Thanks for the input.

Tractor has R4 loaded rear tires. Original and in good condition.

Thanks for your response. I crawled under and check for debris. Couldn't see anything. I lubed the brake linkage (as per previous post). Thank you

Thanks. Yes, the parking brake is released. However you got me thinking in that direction. I checked and lubed the brake linkage. Didn't see any binding but a little oil can't hurt. I haven't put any time on the tractor since. Plenty of field work coming up soon; I'll let you know if it...

Hello all, I own a MF1758 HST tractor that has begun to act strangely when I back up. Seems just fine in forward. I feel a surging like motion, like I'm backing up over cobbles. Sort of like I feel resistance and then no resistance, if that makes sense. The engine rpm does not fluctuate. Only...

quick reply here. Did you happen to dial back the hyraulics knob under the seat?
