what is wrong with transmision/torq-conv on my Jcb 3cx 2 wheel dr.1981?

My only other suggestion would be to make sure the valve operated by the dump pedal is closed when the pedal is released. A collapsed gearbox mounting rubber can cause the linkage to tighten up, as could a bent link rod to the gearbox. Otherwise I suggest a more professional appraisal as it could be a problem in the gearbox/torque convertor. Lets hope not, look at the easy bits first!
