Regarding the model #, it is 932104. I had forward and reverse prior to the belt replacement, that is why this seems weird. I ran the machine with the belt cover off and it seems fine, even when engaging the clutch. There was a little grease on the disc and I wiped it off.
When it is in reverse gears, the friction wheel is near the center of the disc all seems aligned. However, the forward gears move the friction wheel out toward the edge of the disc. Now when engaged, the pressure from the wheel pushes the disc at least 1/8 th inch due to the play in the shaft. Perhaps enough not to provide enough traction?
Again, I don't know if this is the issue, but it is the only thing I see that looks out of place. There is no screw on the drive pulley shaft that allows you to tighten it. I tried loosening and tighening the clutch cable but that didn't work either.
My other thought is perhaps I need a new friction wheel with more rubber on it. But my reverse works fine and so did the forward gears prior to the belt change. Any other ideas are appreciated. Big storm coming to CT again this week and I'm sure the dealer wouldn't get it back to me for a while.
