Got up here this morning, read news of the day, checked YT, checked phone messages. Lo a message from my brother Frank, on the east coast. Tractor problems. I phoned Frank. Plowing snow with the 230 as he depresses clutch he gets a growling noise. If tractor is running and he gets on tractor is hard to get in gear as transmission will not stop turning. With tractor in gear and clutch down it growls. Slip the transmission to neutral and continue to hold clutch down and noise stops. Our diagnosis is pilot bushing, as release bearing will still be turning. What is your opinion guys, are we right? Have we overlooked anything? Frank is aprox. 2 years younger than I, apparently he hasn't given in to a big blue machine blowing his snow. I have tried on numerous ocasions to get Frank into YT discussions. See the method in my madness, now he will have to thank you guys.
