Best Answer

JOHN DEERe does not advise changing trans fluid on the lx176 for two (2) reasons.

(1) The possibility of contaminants getting in the resevoir.

(2) The system has to be burped(bleeded) like you would car brakes. If you are unfimiliar

with this process, you could be left with an immovable tractor or a substantial cost

from a dealer to correct the problem.

You are better off just topping off with wd10x30 motor oil.

John deere tractor lx176 14hp with no spark I have replaced the coil an wire -plug i have bypassed all safety switches still no spark to plug what should I look for thank you Dick Jennings?

Dick, Just had the same problem. I replace the coil but it wasnt until I replaced the small silver square thing that they called the "module". It has 1 input into it with two white wires that run in under fly wheel. That fixed problem about $80 AUS and mower started but now seems to be out of time and wont fire. Hope this helps Ben


Why does PTO-clutch on a John Deere LX176 keep cutting off and it runs for a shorter and shorter period of time after reengaging the switch?

One of my clients tractors the same model has been doing the same thing. We discovered it is the PTO engagement switch. His will get to where it will cut the PTO off and not engage at all. When it does this, he will push the switch and pull it out repeatedly very quickly and it will engage again. If yours does the same thing, the switch is likely bad. There are aftermarket switches available for around 16 bucks. Just Google part number AM118802. Only difference is the little knob will be red instead of yellow. The part at the John Deere dealer is over 30 bucks. Also, BEFORE you spend any money, check the main ground wire at the left rear side of the tractor. Simply follow the negative battery wire to where it connects to the engine mounting bolt. Make SURE this area is clean and the bolt and nut securing the ground is tight. If it's loose, or the connection is dirty, this could be your problem as well. It is not likely the PTO clutch itself, as it is an electromagnet and will either work or not work. There is usually NO in between for those. Hope that helps.
