Hello All,
Welp here is my first post! Hope there are some good answers coming other than get rid of it.
I have a 16-44 HXL TORO Wheelhorse Model#71196 that the engine runs perfect and the mower looks like new.I think the rear end or Hydro is going out? I live in small town Iowa and can mow my 1/4 block yard with out any problems with the hydro tranny But if I go to the shed and start it up and drive it 2 blocks to the gas station it starts to slow down before I make it to get gas AND THEN I start it up leave the gas station drive area and have engine running full before it chokes and now the mower is moving slower and slower then it like locks up squeaking till it stops.I shut the mower off sit for 3-4 minutes and it starts moving again slow then locks up again It does this all the way back to my house.I talked to a Toro dealer about maybe changing the fluid out in the Hydro or something and he said no dont mess with it? If any of you have run into this problem or know for sure whats going on it would be of Great Help! I want it to work again like it should.Thank You In Advance! Born
