It's full of oil right? You used some sort of hy-tran or 30wt oil? Not gear oil right?

Not uncommon for a hydro not to want to move after an oil change. Usually you can roll it a little while moving the lever and it will go. Also been a common problem with members here that after a flush the residual "gunk" either plugs the filter. Or it has also happened, that a piece of rag used to wipe out the rear got left inside and plugged the filter.
Yep, old gasket came off just fine.

I didn't try jacking it up and running.

I didn't try moving it a little while moving the lever.....can I get alittle bit clear directions for this move. Much appreciated.

Yes, its full of Hytran oil I picked up from dealer.

I'll run through the steps of jacking up the tractor and moving it while moving the lever. If none of that works, I'll try replacing the filter again, just in case it picked up more junk.....although...I must ask....wouldn't a plugged filter cause that same issue forward as I have in reverse?
