I was given a husky with a big hole in the side of the
Briggs engine. Only had 400 hours on it.
I found a used engine and now the transaxle is making a funny sound.
I removed the axle. Some may call it an HST hydro static transaxle which was covered with mud.
It also had a 1 7/8 inch ball on it.. So good chance it was being abused pulling a trailer.
I'm draining the oil through the vent hole. Oil looks dark.
I plan to replace the same amount of oil that I drained from it and see it it quiets down.
What oil should I use in the HST?
I really don't need another mower. It is just the challenge to see if I can fix it.
I currently have the same mower with about 450 hours on ti.
How often do you change the HST oil?
I wish it was a John Deere.
I have 2 deers and can easily change the oil and the filter.
