All thanks again for your input. Since I posted this thread, I went and read the manual for my 1210/680. The 680 and 1450 both have hydrostatic drives. I compared some of the photos in the manual, they appear to be very simmilar. In the text, it mentioned the relief valves, there are two, are interchangable. So I went out and flipped them and started the tractor. The one that was originally not leaking began squirting. The one that originally was squirting was now dry. Ah ha I said, bad valve. I ran up to my local CC dealer got a new valve, $160.00 and replaced it. Started up the tractor. Now both valves new and old are squirting. I now believe there is something going on inside either the pump or the hydraulic motor. Your thoughts
