CC 1541 Reverse weak
 

The ole 1541 eventually got to the point where it barely moves in reverse although forward is fine. Could this be a hydraulic issue? The fluid and filter has been in there for at least 5 years. Thanks

The 1541 had two different Hydro Transmissions, depending on S/N range. They were: (a) Sundstrand, and (b) Hydro Gear.

What is the Chassis Serial Number of your tractor ?

Thanks, you have a Sundstrand Hydro Transmission.

I would suggest that you reverse the roles of the Relief Valves and see if the problems follow the change.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will try to find out where they are located.

Under your seat.
