Last fall my hubby split the tractor because it seemed to be stuck in gear. Turned out it was just the shifter stuck, we got a Sloppy Shifter kit from ebay which fixed it. Thanks to those of you that suggested it!
SO...DH figured as long as he had the tractor split, why not put a new clutch disk in...although the old one worked fine and was less than 1/2 worn.
Now, when it is back together the fingers barely touch the throw-out bearing, and do not depress at all, and he says it is adjusted according to the info in the manual and here, plus the clutch rod is adjusted as far as it will go. However, he NOW thinks he did the measurements without the pressure plate being compressed. Would this be the problem?
What size are the bolts that screw into the 3 bolt holes to compress the pressure plate? On ours the 3 holes are smaller than the 6 bolts that mount the pressure plate.
Also, the pressure plate fingers are worn into ovals at the pins where they pivot.
So, do we need to buy a whole new pressure plate or is it possible to just buy new fingers and pins?
I just want to add, we aren't mechanics, as you can tell from my post, and please forgive if I sound pretty stupid about this....
