I haven't been able to get back to the tractor, as it is snowed in out in a field 'til spring.
Just a thought, if they overfilled the main case with hydraulic oil, by say 5 or 10 gallons, would that cause the P.S. transmission to ''kill'' the engine as soon as the ''clutch'' pedal is released?
Before winter closed in I did check for stuck shift valves (they weren't) and in thinking about it oil drained out of the lower ones at a high flow (engine NOT running, of course), getting me to thinking they may have filled the oil well above the upper sight glass.
I didn't think at the time to check for the oil being overfilled, just now thinking about it and wondering if could be what happened as the transmission had been working normally before the hose blew, and they added oil after repairs were made.
Anyone got any comments on that possibility?
