580B Diesel

[Terry M.]

I followed the suggestions from my last post and changed the fuel filters. The engine seems to run stronger but it still won't pull with a load in the bucket in 2nd or 3rd gear. 1st gear is not too bad but very slow.
The transmission reads full on the dipstick but the fluid is frothy. Is this normal? It has a shuttle shift if this matters.
More advise would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Terry M.

the oil obviously should not be frothy, this indicates oil either contaminated with water or frohy with air. sounds like a good fluid change is in order with a refil of Hy tran ultra. We need pressure readings to be of much help except general suggestions. Both system pressure and torque converter pressures are needed, plus High Idle (wide open) rpm
