well first you need to find it then figure out your problome or even find out if it has one ask your JOHN DEERe dealer or parts they tell u where to find it then u can do what you need to do .........(hope this helps).
The John Deere LX176 lawn tractor typically requires about 4 quarts of transmission fluid. It's important to use the recommended type of fluid, which is usually a low-viscosity hydraulic fluid. Always check the owner's manual for specific guidelines and to ensure proper maintenance.
If the engine is revving up, then the transmission is having problems. If the engine is not revving, then check the linkage from the accelerator to the throttle body.
Shift to neutral, coast to shoulder, check linkage and repair before you proceed.
check the carbureator linkage and the throttle cable for something hanging up, also check the accelerator pedal itself for needing lubed.
For a hydrostatic transmission system like that in a John Deere LX176 lawn tractor, you should use a high-quality hydraulic fluid that meets the manufacturer's specifications. Typically, this would be a low-viscosity hydraulic oil, such as John Deere Hy-Gard or a comparable fluid with a viscosity rating of ISO 46. Always consult the owner's manual for specific recommendations and ensure to check the fluid level regularly to maintain optimal performance.
do you have mechanical linkage or accelerator cable. these may be dirty and need lube to stop them sticking. check for broken return spring on accelerator
well with any vehicle if the engine is accelerating usually its a linkage problem meaning your linkage is getting stuck somewhere check that first
Check for obstructions like floor mats and junk that are effecting the accelerator pedal operation. Also check for sticky or binding accelerator pedal cable and/or throttle body linkage. If the check engine light is illuminated you can have your local auto parts store scan for codes that may lead you to the cause of the problem.
I would first look at the accelerator pump in the carburettor. The accelerator pump puts a short burst of raw gas into the air stream. This gives an enriched air flow into the engine causing acceleration. To check the accelerator pump: With the engine off remove the air filter and hold the choke valve open (if it is closed). Then move the accelerator linkage to open the throttle valve and you should be able to see a spray of raw gas into the venturi. If there is no spray then you need to make sure the linkage is working correctly. If the linkage is pushing the accelerator pump down and there is no spray you may consider replacing the accelerator pump.
Hey Veronica==You have a wire that is shorting out somewhere. Check under the dash around the acc pedal linkage. GoodluckJoe
Denton Deere wanted Chris to sign the check that would approve Denton Deere of $5,000, but Chris didn't sign the check because he knew that if he signed the check, then that Denton Deere would stop visiting him.
Can be a linkage problem check linkage that goes form transmission to shift the vehicle
