JD 1010 crawler doesn't propel

Post by sawyer60 » Sat Jun 28, 2014 1:07 pm

JD 1010 crawler won't propel forward or backward......when activating reverser in either direction, want's to kill the engine. Could this be a pressure valve problem?

The rear end is free.....it rolls easily when pulled with a tractor......even when in neutral, when reverser is put in forward or reverse, it wants to kill the engine.

Sounds like neither clutch pack is releasing fully. The 25psi side releases them. Probably a control valve problem. Check the pressures if you are able and adjust the relief valve if that helps. If you can stand it for awhile they should loosen when it gets warm, but it is also wearing the packs.

I see in the shop manual that it is recommended not to open anything up until those 3 pressure readings are taken. So that is what I'll do next....your description of what is probably happening sounds very feasible.
Thanks for the input
