WheelHorse520-H 4 #1 Posted May 19, 2023 My GT 14 with the parking brake on wants to creep back. The fan where the belt is under the seat barely spines and is making a clonking sound. Moved fine forward and reverse. My video is to big to upload. Any knowledge would be appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,912 #2 Posted May 19, 2023 The parking brake on sunstrand hydros like yours is a weak spot . People engage it while still moving and it grinds off the teeth, the resulting metal fragments damage the hydro unit.. Drain your hydro and see if there are any metal sparkles in the fluid... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 63,118 #3 Posted May 19, 2023 It wouldn’t hurt to make a YouTube video and post it too. There is a method for adjusting the hydro cam as well. It may be beneficial to verify all motion control parts are DRY and tight. NO LUBE on the spring/cone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19richie66 17,523 #4 Posted May 19, 2023 Check the belt engagement lever/pulley assembly under the right side cover. The two brackets can loosen up with wear and clunk while the belt is rotating. As for the creep, check the plastic plate and ball stud under the seat for wear. There is an adjustment cam in there for setting nuetral 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adjusting the neutral position is not too hard to do. Page 3 of this OM/IPL it gives a good writeup on doing it. The Charger manual is better than the GT-14 manual on this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelHorse520-H 4 #7 Posted May 20, 2023 Thanks I’ll try it but I think it’s stripped. It’s been that way the 7 years I’ve had it. Even with the clutch pedal down it was still making noise and the more throttle I gave it the more it wanted to buck and creep to where I had to cut it off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
