Problem with shifting into hi gear, speed surges

old 1995
we need vastly more symptoms then that,sorry
if the engine surges, that is first. (surges in 1 gear)
but if a transmission down shifts that is normal, rpm rises
(after all its a lower gear) (higher numeric ratio)
find any machanic in town
ask him test drive it.!
10 min.later he wilt tell you
its trans issues.
or its engine, super easy this is driving.

seems you can not, and learning is 1hour in car class..or 10x that lacking facts of drive train functions.


stop guessing. why spend cash on a useless sensor now.
spend cash on $1 shop diagnosis and WIN.
i promise !

or get it scanned.
and post all those DTC errors. P0700? and more.

You have to press the clutch\brake pedal to shift up or down gears. Check your manual, you may even have to come to a complete stop in order to change speeds,or direction. Cub Cadet Garden Tractor Operators Manual ManualsOnline com

Replace the outer needle bearings.

The tractor has a variable speed pulley for the 1-6 gears. You will want to check the top pulley on the shaft that is in the center of your tractor between the engine and transaxle. you may have broke the spring or adjuster.

sounds like the drive belt is off or broken, on the lawn tractors if you remove the plate, where you shift gears, you will see the belt.

those fluid drive transmissions fail on quite a few brands as they all use the same ones....replace the trans...they are expensive but still cheaper than a new mower.

the belt is bad if not there is trouble in the drive shaft.Thank you for asking and I hope this helps you.Please leave me a 4 thumbs up.

What kind of lawn trackor do you have and is it a hydromatic?

The front belt should be a 954-0280A, rear 954-0370. When you go to higher gears, the front belt should be getting tighter as the vari-speed pulley is moving further back. Remove the shift plate, put the transmission in neutral. Start the engine, put speed selector in highest gear and slowly let out on the clutch. You should be able to see what the problem is. It will do everything the same as if were in gear, except move. Make sure you have the correct belts.
