will it steer good on a warm day then the pump is not the problem, when was the last time that you changed oil and filter . do you use Hy Tran or something else . Now everybody is going to come down on me for this BUT Hy Tran is around a 20 weight hdy. oil and some of the stuff that you get elsewhere is sometime a 10 weigh as is the John Deere you could change out for the winter and go back to the hy tran . when it warms up . The least amount of water will get trapped in the filter and clog it and this is the biggest trouble why they won"t steer or sometimes not move till they warm up for fifteen or twenty min. Had one guy that would not change his filter but once a year and every winter his 766 would freeze up , one time it got below minus 20 for a couple days and it realy froze up to the point that we could not drag it to get it into the shop he even put diesel fuel in a barrel bottom and lit it under the rear end tryen to thaw it out and this was a gasser not smart at all we got the fire out and just in time as the sediment bowl had cracked . i ended up getting one of my tractor running so he could grind feed .
