If you followed the thread...the first dealer told me I no compression in one of my cylinders.

Took it to a different dealer

The tractor has always sounded off to me. I posted this year's ago. Thanks for the help. https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/threads/hydrostat-noise-question.55196/

Added some videos in separate post fyi

I jacked it up and spun the wheels. Too me just sounds like the gears working normal but there is slight clicking noise. I used a heavy duty 6 ft disc for 3 hours today. Here are my observations Top speed is only 13 mph Still acts like a brake is on or shuddering when I accelerate very...

The rear end noise does exist, but it is not loud. The delearship is the oldest kubota dealer in the country...lol :(. They lifted the tractor up by the ROPS via off road forklift. With the engine off we rotated the rear wheels, and yes you could here a faint noise coming from what sounded...

Yes. They hooked up to dyno and said it's only putting out 40 hp but said it could be a number of different things causing low HP. I asked them to do a compression test. They said one cylinder only had 50psi. When I got the tractor home I looked for evidence the compression test was...

The dealership spent 13 hours @$135 per hour going through the rear end with no answers. Attached is the service sheet. They offered to take care of the labor if I paid for parts. I had no choice , I had to take that offer. I guess I'll go to another dealer and tell them what isn't the...

Are there any clutch adjustments or just clutch pedal free play?

5740 hydrostat, I was going up a very steep hill and half way up I decided it was a bad idea, I let the hydro hold my position while I thought about my options. All of the sudden something gives and I'm rolling backwards full speed! Still alive, but now when I accelerate fwd and reverse...

This is my first summer with it, so I don't know it's history. My 3240 did the same thing when pulling the same heavy disc. Additionally the air filter is clean. I guess my normal is a little hot but not too hot? Firs

I have a l5740 that runs one bar past the middle whenever its under load or working. I have flushed the coolant and replaced with new green coolant 50/50 plus a coolant additive, used an air compressor to thoroughly clean radiator fins, then wash the radiator with water hose. I have also...

Dealer says this is the way it operates. Case closed.

Also I did mode a test. Everything checked out per manual. I'm beginning to think this is the way it is? I did notice a cruise control kit for a 3901 on you tube that has linkage between cruise control lever and pedal. I see no linkage on the 5740

Well I just swapped the cruise sensor and the pedal sensor because they are the same part number. The tractor operates the exact same......errr!

Where is this picture? I really can't tell it's one the cruise sensors but the pic it too close! Is

Just got around to replacing the speed sensor. So now I have a working speedometer. The cruise control still does engage like it should. So they were not related. Guess I'll start looking at the cruise sensor.....

For the cruise to engage I Rev rpms by hand then use the pedal to move fed. At that point I move cruise lever to the middle and mph holds, if I want to move faster I move the cruise lever farther down. I CANNOT set the cruise by using only the foot pedal . For whatever reason the hand throttle...

Update. Not 100% positive but the speedometer and cruise do not appear to be related. Upon inspection the speed sensor is broken off. I went through all of the obvious connections regarding the cruise sensors etc. When i engage the cruise lever the cruise light on the panel comes on. But...

Clearly everyone is being facetious and that's putting it nicely. I'll just retreat deep into the WSM and pretend I know how to read wiring diagrams.
