    my turf tiger is acting up-the right wheel will sometimes quit turning-it will always turn backwards-but it will quit going forward sometimes-any ideas what may be wrong-fluid level okay and dump valves are closed.

    I havent seen a turf tiger-but id there any chance the brakes are dragging a little?The parking brake is usually stronger in forward than reverse,so this would make sense.I just hope it isnt a bad wheel motor.

    If you changed the filters and got air in the system, it could be the problem. I'm not familiar with Scags either, but it could be the problem.
