hello i have the exact 753 drive motor and i had doubts on the manual but you are correct on the timing of the motor. my question by any chance do you know why i only get power towards one direction and not the other way. basically when installed i only get power towards forward but not reverse ive replaced my hydrostatic pump and does same thing and also resealed the drive motor.
@D J C I've read somewhere in the forums that there is like a relief valve that is adjustable inside this motor. I have not taken mine apart but my issue is jumpiness and am leaning towards a reseal. Btw, where did you get your oring kit from? Thanks!
