Steve (et el), A simple bead weld fixed the high pressure housing and Tiftin delivered their $273 dollar replacement element. All works fine. Dug and poured my barn footer in early November, but am snowed out now until Spring. Hydraulically, the machine continues to perform great.
Have you fixed your drive problem yet??? Still have the high range drive problem and doubt it is linkage as you suggested. To get "her" to move at all, even in low range, I need to run her at high engine RPM for an extended period (10 minutes or so). I have noted that at the top of the transmission there is an air hose attached. The attachment fitting has a breather port that constantly vents air pressure. My neighbor is a diesel mech (not familiar with Pettibone and has never seen the machine) and suggests that this is a pressure relief valve with defective O-rings, thereby, never allowing the hydrostatic tranny to achieve enough pressure to shift to high range. It is hard to get too, but my intent is to pull the valve this Spring and check it out. Your thoughts??
Thanks. Keep in touch. JJK.
