My 4300 throttle has a nasty habit of decreasing or slowing down when I am trying to mow at PTO speed. Evidently something in the throttle linkage is lost. I set it and take off and it slowly decreases.

Anyone else have a problem with theirs, and what was the fix?

You're right, something is loose. I wish I could tell you where it is on your tractor but I can't. I had the same problem on a 4610 but it was taken care of under warranty. If my memory serves me right (doubtful) it was some kind of restriction plate. Easy fix, if someone here can tell you where it is? ....

Easy fix Treefarmer. Up under the dash area where the throttle lever is there is a friction adjustment screw/bolt. Tighten is a little and adjust it as required to hold rpm. I am assuming you have the HST version? ....
