Ok, here is what I know so far. The mechanic looked at it today and this is what he said: Nothing is broken/bent/missing on it anywhere that he can tell. The clutch is not shredded. The clutch is not burned up. He was able to adjust the clutch better than I did and got the tractor moving better today. He is going to work on it some more tomorrow. He thinks it either has a pressure leak or a blockage or a failed pump somewhere in the hydraulic system causing a loss of hydraulic pressure. That makes sense. That is why the tractor was able to move almost normally the other day for a couple of minutes until it lost pressure because of a leak or blockage or a failed pump. If it is a leak, maybe that's what caused the small loss of hydraulic fluid. If it is a blockage, I guess the blockage could have unblocked itself for the few minutes it ran almost normally and then blocked up again. I would think a blockage could also explain why the hydraulic fluid is clear at the rear of the tractor and milky at the front. However, I wouldn't think it could have ran almost normally for 2 minutes with a failed pump but if it turns out to be a failed pump, then that won't be too expensive to fix depending on which one it is. I didn't think it could be anything too bad given the low hours on the tractor, unless something broke but then again, with it acting almost normal for a couple of minutes, I should have concluded that something probably wasn't broken! :confused2: Anyway, the mechanic thinks he'll have it running completely normal tomorrow sometime (unless it's a failed pump) so we'll see. So far, it's only cost me $75 to get it to the dealer. Best case scenario is it gets fixed somehow for free and it only costs me another $75 to have it towed back. If that happens, it will be worth the $150 to learn what happened to it and why!
