I think that it is that I'm just not used to the way a hydrostatic runs. I'm not used to haveing to bump up the lever when it starts to slow or bog down under load. I did the trunion repair which greatly improved the operation of it, Mabe I need to make some other changes?. I did change fluid and filter at that time also. I am thinking about when I'm going to be plowing snow, it seems like I'll have one hand on the wheel and one on the hydro lever to keep going. The snow in NW Pa. can be heavy, wet, deep and crusty all at the same time. At times you hit it hard and back up and do it agian until you get a hole punched thru it. I know that these cubs are workhorses, I just want to be sure I have what I need to get things done. I don't mind putting money into them as I need them. Without a tractor I would be lost and broke as I would have to hire stuff done. I plan on keeping both the 1450 and the 122 unless another comes along that would better suit my needs, that was the purpose of the question as what is the best and most desirable worker out there. While we are on the 1450, I have seen on here things about motor mounts needing replaced. Are there some symptoms that tell when they are in need of replacement?
