I'm sure this has been hashed out many times but here goes: My much used 743b has developed an issue in which the left side does not pull as well as it should. The machine used to creep a little in neutral and there was also some noise coming from the drive train while in neutral and right after startup that could be cured by moving the drive arms just a little ...( these symptoms don't seem to be happening any more) I could live with those problems but now things are a bit more serious. When going forward the machine veers to the left and when I move the left drive arm forward and let the right arm return to a more neutral position to get it going straight the machine slows a considerable amount. This is not a problem when going in reverse as it it pulls evenly then. Also, when sitting still, if push the left control arm forward nothing will happen up to a point and then it will jerk into gear. I have tried pushing against a tree on dry land just to see if both sides will spin and they do. I'm guessing this could be the left side drive motor and have read that I could swap the motors side to side to verify. I don't make living with this thing but do need it on my farm ... if it is a motor or pump .... can these things be rebuilt ... I really don't want to spend lots of money on it if I don't have to, Thanks, Rgoer
