hydrostat problem

[olfebob]

The clear tube from the hydrostat was leaking, replaced it, now hydrostat has a chatter and loss of power. Possibly trapped air? How to correct it?

Thanks, Scott!!! I tried your suggestion and it seems to correct the problem. I mowed for more than an hour with no more problems. Forums like this are priceless, thanks to folks like you.
