No way it’s the pump. If you have 2500 psi in reverse then the pump is working fine . It would be in the drive motor . Your pump doesn’t change direction. There is a valve system controlling the flow of the oil driving the motor . Just my 2 cents

I have a 52" simplicity citation with the 23 HP Vanguard. I don't know how it compares to yours exactly but do you have a video for replacing the starter motor?
@@builditright4666 thank you. I mow five acres just outside of KC. I always use my JDs. Bought this one from a customer of mine for about what you paid in similar condition for a project, it’s been fun learning all the hydro stuff. Stout little machine. I’m almost finished had to order a new left wheel motor but it’s a Oregon brand. I bought two motors actually invade there’s a difference in performance they are coming as a pair. Thanks for getting back. Your videos helped a lot. 👍

I fixed it years ago watch all the videos on it
My Citation is weak on the left also, no doubt the same problem, where is the followup video on this ?

No sir but I bet you can figure it out.
What line did you use for your test. Upper/lower A/B? Greatly appreciate it. Thx!
tested all of them mostly just to compare pressures.
In series then. Thx!
@@oldkicker8958 I just unhooked both lines and tested them individually. oil and pressure will only come out of them when the drive levers are moved

Do you know what size fitting is needed to make that tester for the hoses?
not right off but it was all stuff from the hardware store
What did you end up doing?
I fixed it. I think there is a video where its all finished up.
Do you happen to know what size fittings you needed for that gauge. Mine is doing the same thing and I want to test it before I open it up
