[QUOTE="3640 E, post: 66806, member: 9287"] Spent Friday, Saturday, and Sunday cleaning and checking everything out on "Puddles" that is what I have named the skid steer since every time I park her for a while she leaves a little puddle of some type of skid steer fluid!! I believe I have found the nocking noise, it is the hydrostat but not due to a problem with the hydraulic pump itself but some GENIUS welded a piece of flat stock between one of the motor mounts and the body of the machine instead of replacing worn motor mounts. I believe this is now transfering engine vibration to the hydrostat and making it jump up and down wildly. I can hold down on the hydrostat when it is making the knocking sound and it goes away. Now all I have to do is cut the piece of flat stock and I'm going to change ALL the motor mounts and I believe she will be good as new and no more knocking!! Not sure how difficult changing the motor mounts is going to be yet but there doesn't look like there is much room in there to work. [/QUOTE]
