I find my 360 needs tons of pressure to get the wheels to proper RPM. Most of this pressure being released at the pressure valve. Nothing seems to be clogging water flow to Polaris. Any ideas? TIA.
 
Replace the wheel brearings and other moving parts using a Polaris rebuild kit.

You have friction buildup on the rotating parts.

Ok. Thanks. Fairly easy to do?

Easy for me if you know how to take things apart and put it back together. Review the instructions attached to this post.

This video gives you an idea of the disassembly...

Could be friction in the bearings, but also the belts can be too tight and will cause that issue. They need a little slack at the top, about an 1/4" play.
