350C Dozer Weak When Warm

[gm1276]

Hi Guys,

I haven't picked up this machine yet, but purchased it for the right price and haven't yet owned one -- owner tells me the machine works fine until it warms up, and then continues to slow down until it won't move at all. From what I've read, it sounds like an issue with the hydraulic clutch system -- but I figured I'd ask the experts here if anyone has seen this specifically before and what it might be exactly? Just want to get an idea of what I'm getting into before I start planning the repairs. Thanks in advance!

Most likely something in the reverser. I would drain the reverser, new filter and fluid and then try it again. Make sure to get a service manual if you don't already have one, and check all the pressures on the reverser valve body.
