STEERING

[dcaron]

ANY REASON THAT WHEN MACHINE STARTED UP WANTS TO MOVE TO LEFT ALL THE TIME OR EVEN WHEN FULL FORWARD TAKES OFF ONE WAY??

Your steering linkages need to be adjusted. If you identify your make and model Im sure you will get some direction. Mike

You'll find a thread with a lot of details on this subject , I'd look at the pintle levers which are tri angular steering bars under the black plate on top the sunstrand transmission pump , the bolts holding the pintles to the shaft seem to come loose a lot , you can tell easily by puttting a large screw drive , perferrablly a bent end one , under the pintle and prying up to see if it wiggles on the shaft , if the pintles are tight proceed with a steering adjustment using the two square blocks bolted under the steering plate which have 4 3/8 ( 9/16 headed) bolts holding them on , a lot of times just tightening up the pintles puts in right back in neutral , if you try to adjust it first then tighten the pintle up it puts it way out
