Hey guys I'll try to keep this short and concise
Right side drive is acting up. At low throttle, it doesn't move and it makes a slight humming noise, at half throttle the right side does move but it almost skips(feel like the drive motor is engaging and disengaging at a rapid speed) also accompanied by the humming noise, at full throttle the the ride side drive does move without skipping but it is a little weak. For all these scenarios I am just using the right side drive lever to try and turn left if that makes sense. Oddly enough at full throttle if I go straight and backwards both right and left side drive work as they should. The issue is when throttle is mid to low range expeciiallt when trying to turn left. Any thoughts an how or where I should start diagnosing? Should I swap drive pump? Swap drive motors? Not too sure on these machines and would appreciate some input.

I believe that machine has in-line filters, one for each drive motor. I would change them out and see if the problem persists. Make sure to open and chech the old filters for any unusual debris.

These filters are always neglected since a lot of people don't know they exist.
