Sounds like some stuck relief valves to me.They have a tendency to stick when you least expect it LOL

No lever other than hyd-cylinder function on right side.

If it were mine, I'd go for the brake thing first. You might be right on the plunger not releasing all the way.
 
Well to shed some more light on the situation, when I first got it fired up, it would NOT go forward or reverse, other than the continual slow forward motion regardless of lever position. Then I moved the implement lever to see if hydraulics and cylinder functioned, then a slight pressure dump was felt and off it went(on stands ;) ) and both forward and reverse worked. Figured something in hydro stuck, but now unstuck...., but now maybe stuck at a different position because forward reverse still work....
 
To put simply, the rear end is reacting exactly like that of a car when in park, Locked to roll either direction, but when raised wheels spin freely and reverse direction when both in the air, regardless of brake pedal being depressed or not
 
The input shaft to tran is being held back either by the brake, or by the hydro. Going to free up plunger and eliminate that before anything else.

Hopefully some input rolls in from the forum on which is best, internal or external brakes before I delve too deep in the wrong one.
 
I hate to ask, but was everything working before you started working on it, By that I mean, did it move? Did it lift? And when was the last time you changed the fluid and filter? Just thinkin with my fingers ya know!

When I got the 1650 it had a broken connecting rod, had sat somewhere 10yrs or more. Picked it up along with a parts tractor from the PO who never got around to looking at it...... It's a mystery. He was not the original owner when it was running either so he has no more info.
 
Jeff change the hytran and filter I’d bet it looks like mud or black coffee,I’d say do that next
 
When I got my 125 it was doing kinda the same thing sat for a long time soon as changed the hytran and filter it moved like a new tractor
