I have come across a few mowers that look like they have hydrostatic transmissions but actually don't. Some of these imitations are okay examples while others are poor. If you have one made of plastic, get rid of it before it fails!

Thanks for watching! Yes all the LT1000s were either gear or hydro, the plastic transmissions didn't really show up until 2013 or so.

hydrostats do whine - my first experience was my Dad bought a Cub Cadet 127 in 1970 or 1972 and it was hydrostat with a single lever on the dash for forward/reverse. It definitely had a whine especially when you have it revving low and move forward or backwards. Flash forward I now I have a 2014 Dixon zero turn, and it has a hydrostatic tranny. It won't whine at all when you have it cranked up and mowing. But when I'm done I blow off all the dust with a leaf blower, restart it at low throttle and move it into it's stall - I want it to cool down before storing. It has the exact same whine. And it is a great little unit been absolutely dependable for going on 10 years. I think you have to pay a little more for a real hydro, but it's worth it.

I’m happy with the MTD vs system and its cheap up keep and easy to fix. Don’t need the fancy stuff that will break the bank and never work more than two years

Your friends need you to look the new mowers over before they buy them 😊

The only hydrostatic transmission tractor i got is a white gt 2055 garden type and it never lets me down i love that tractor to death it's got the 3pt hitch - high low gear shift and a front pto to attach items and they sell loaders and backhoes for them as well i wish i had those attachments for it that is a true tractor i would recommend.

Thanks for the informative video. I have a 2008 Craftsman LT2000 (917 YTA) with a Tecumseh 206-545C trans on it. What are your thoughts on that transaxle?

I think the Tecumseh transaxles are just fine. Pretty much any transaxle besides the plastic General ones I mention in this video will generally last the life of the mower.
