X320 creeps

Hello Everyone.
I was doing routine maintenance on my fathers x320 with nearly 800 hours and noticed it does not like to stop when I take my foot off the forward pedal. I need to use the reverse pedal to stop It. Even then, it still slowly creeps forward. I tried spraying super lube on the mechanism under the floor. Any suggestions other than to keep lubricating and hoping it improves. Are there any adjustments to make?
Thank you.

Back by the transmission there is a small shock absorber on the control linkage (highlighted below). It acts to dampen the movements of the pedals to avoid abrupt stops and starts. Sometimes when the shock goes bad it can either have no dampening effect or it can get real sluggish, causing the pedals to return slowly.

If you suspect it is causing a problem you can disconnect it and see if your symptoms change.
