Boomer 41 losing power

[dismith550]

Going up slight hill loses power, engine Does not bog down, spit, sputter, does not lose rpm, no evidence of strain, no load, only pulling itself - its like engine not connected to wheels, 700 hrs. Adjusted clutch, helped a little, got worse quickly, adjusted clutch to extreme, is clutch connected to hydraulics? All fluids ok, new filters 20 or so hrs ago, I am adjusting clutch by making adjustment arm Longer, tried opposite way, clutch wouldn’t engage at all.

You are sure it isn't the fuel filter? It was on mine. Ran OK until I started uphill.

If fuel and air filter are good, are the tires slipping on the rims? There was another thread on here over the last week with the same problem & it was tires not turning with the rims.
