Posting the same question in multiple threads can cause confusion. Usually we'll close one and leave a redirect to the other. Since these two threads were very similar, but not quite identical, I've "merged" them. ~Digger242j I have a 963 loader that runs fine but once it warms up to 200 degrees it is if the transmission slips for a second and then engages again and repeats, but only when pushing hard, like taking out a big tree. You can go and do something else with it not as hard and it does fine. Any ideas? And I have recently pulled the drian plate, it had a bad O ring, found a little piece of thin metal in it about the size of a little finger nail, not very thick can bend it fairly easily. The machine works and runs fine up until it reaches that 200 degrees mark in a hard push. No noises, any help would be appreciated

Thanks: that sucks, I ran it yesterday and it ran fine, but it never did get over 190 degrees
Run it for a trophy at this point, until it gets really bad you may not isolate the issue.
That's what I'm thinking about doing. It dont make any noise
