YM146 Power shift

Check with tractor ernie . I think he posted that his tractors have atf in them

Ernie does use ATF, Mercon if memory serves me correctly. I recently asked Ernie but then didn't need to add any fluid so it isn't promanently stored in memory.

I don't know how well transmission fluid works with the rearend gears ernie says they have had no problems . I think the power shift clutch pack is somewhat like transmission clutches in vehicles with auto. trans.

Thanks for the replies! I am gonna try the Mercon ATF in it. I have also gone through the Power Shift control linkage and tightened up all the possible troublepoints. That has been a huge help already. I found lots of slop in the linkage and cleaned that up. Now when I find time I will do the fluid change to see what that does. I am glad that the fluid doesn't smell "burnt" so I doubt that I have any internal leakage issues.
