R4041 good price?

[bluechip]

With my HST I'm frequently only running 1,500rpm or a bit less. The manual says 1,500+ for work...probably because lugging an engine is bad for it....high load, low oil pressure.

True that lugging is not good, but the main reason to run HST engines at higher RPM is to assure adequate hydraulic pressure from the charge pump to the HST.
