Hoping someone can give me an idea what this noise is about. I'm getting an intermittent squeal kinda like older cars power steering when the wheel is cranked. It happens only when the speed control pedal is advanced. It's worst with rapid forward acceleration, but also in reverse but with a lower pitch and not as loud. It stops with easing off the pedal. Slow speed is OK. No change with loader, 3 point and PTO operation. The hydraulic fluid level is good, looks clean.
I'm snowblowing with a 3 pt blower. Wondering if the hydraulic pump or drive motor is going bad or what. I have not tried changing the filter yet. Tractor has about 500 hrs.
Thanks for any input.
