I've been lurking this forum for months now, so I've decided it's finally time to register. When I built my house last fall, I bought a B7100 from a friend of mine for $5,000 (which seemed like a great deal). Since then I can't figure out how I got by without it. So far it's been used to backfill my garage floor with 20+ tons of stone and dust before pouring the floor, grading parts of the lawn, putting in the driveway and culvert, snowblowing duties, and hopefully mowing the lawn if it ever comes in. The problem I have is that the hydro pedal sticks. I've read previous posts regarding stuck pedals on the BX series of tractors, but none of the fixes mentioned there seem to work for me. I've sprayed all linkages with penetrating oil, which helped some, but the pedal still sticks. I got tired of stepping on the reverse to stop going forward, so I've currently rigged the pedal with a bungee cord to pull it back up to the neutral position. It works fine for now, but I'd like to fix it correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Rob
