Took my L3800 in at 53 hours for the initial maintenance. After I got it back it
just isn't the same. 1. Power is down. 2. It bogs down. Revs will suddenly drop
from 2100 to 1700 to 1200 to 700 and if I clutch it, revs come back immediately.
It's almost like the transmission bogs it down. It's worse on a hill or under load.
Even using the hydraulics has caused it to bog down. It got 64 hours on it now
and it will do this at least 3 times per hour. Otherwise it runs fine except for
feeling like the power is down. Like it's straining all the time.
And it has never died. As soon as the clutch goes in the revs start coming back
up.
Anyone have any ideas? I really hate to take it back to the steal-er. It's
120 mile round trip and I'd have to make it twice (that's saying they fix it
the first time).
Thanks, appreciate any help.
