Joe Just been there and done that. Don't automatically assume that the pto clutch is stuck. I would agree if when you push the clutch in and at the half way point you feel the second stage clutch. If you can't feel it on the pedal, my guess is that it is not disengaging at all. Now we are talking about splitting it. The two stage spicer clutch is apparently something that can't readily be shade treed in and assume it will work. On my tractor, (58 slant steer) the clutch would work for the tractor but I could only get it to adjust up to 3 1/2 inches of free travel. The pto clutch just did not attempt to disengage when the pedal was pushed all the way down. When I took it apart and after studying the book, I found that there are adjustments for the main clutch levers that contact the throughout bearing and also for the second stage part of the clutch. When I took mine apart you could still see the numbers on the small disk. It had never worked since someone slapped the tractor back together. I did not think the mechanics of adjusting were that difficult but you sill have to make a special tool to set up the main clutch levers. Also the book says to use a new clutch disk to do the set up even if you are going to put the used one back in. I did the initial set up with the used one since i did not have a new one to "borrow". Oops it had to come apart again. If I recall I added .050 to the distance of the main clutch lever settings and it came out right on the money. I sure hope I am wrong on the computer diagnosis and someone helps you get the PTO disk unstuck.
