Does the 301P1 have one? At the end of last season the port trans started going into gear mushily (new word) and I'm concerned about the pump or clutches. That trans spins the shaft slowly in neutral which could indicate some issues with the clutches.

I haven't tried it since the haul and oil/spin-on filter replacement so I suppose it could have been low or dirty oil.

This post concerns whether or not there is a strainer somewhere that may be clogged. And now that I think of it, is there a place to screw in a pressure meter to check pump pressure?
