JCB 926

[Chainsawwill]

i own a jcb 926. It’s a 1997 model I think. It’s old but does the job I need it to.

When cold the machine is perfect and pulls away with little to no revs in first gear. When it becomes warmer though it takes more and more revs to move the machine either forward or backwards. The warmer it gets the worse the problem appears to be.

The transmission filter and oil have been replaced. Anyone have any ideas.

Thanks.

Hi
Did the oil smell burnt when changing it! could be the trans pump on the way out... or the torque converter itself.

The oil seemed ok. Is it a major job to replace the pump or torque converter
