Hydrostatic Lurching

No experience with hydrostatic drive. What are the possible problems if the hydrostatic drive lurches (stutters, misses) on flat ground. This is a Landlord that I may be considering buying so I don't know a whole lot about it yet. Could there be an expensive problem there? Thanks.

Welcome davisa

It could be low on oil or air in the system or the belt could be slipping. If there is a way to check the oil do that and you can also take a good look at the belt and grab hold of it and make sure its tight. Not with it running don't grab hold of it while its running.
