I bought a used 1140 about a year ago. It’s been progressively losing power. Recently, if I didn’t “baby” it when starting in high, it would stall (low and medium were okay). And rather suddenly it went from a top speed of 20 to 12. I had to go out of town, so I parked it until I got back.
A friend of a friend said he’d look at it while I was gone. I had ordered new filters and had him change filters and fluids. He discovered the back wheels didn’t turn freely and determined brakes were locked. He said I needed to order parts for him to fix it, so he disconnected them temporarily. He said it’s back to about 20mph again.
A friend drove it about 1000’ a couple days ago. My mother just found this piece (pic attached) along the route he drove, so we’re assuming it came from it. I’m wondering if anyone can tell me what it is.
Thanks in advance.
