[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 12269, member: 82"] Thats a good point. Block the loader so the wheels are off the ground, start it up and see if it still growls. The brake pedal should tilt back towards you. The wheels should not turn, if they do, this *could* be whats causing the growl. With the wheels off the ground there is no reason for it to growl, if it still does you may need to check your Uni-Joints. Pulling the engine isn't hard at all. As mentioned if the uni-joints go bad they can cause you a lot of grief. It can take out the oil cooler, radiator or fins off the fly wheel. If you keep running it with bad joints you will eventually cause pump damage. Hopefully its something simple that is easy and cheap to repair. [/QUOTE]
