Today I had a chance to work on the M for a minute. I removed the belt pulley cover plate and found nothing unusual on inspection. So I put two bolts back in the plate and ran the tractor and mower till the problem showed up.
At this point I lowered the rpm as low as possible threw a large chock in front of the tires and while the tractor was running but not moving with clutch out and in gear I pulled the belt pulley cover off.
The constant mesh gears were turning as if the transmission was placed into neutral. If I shut the tractor off with out any changes you could gear the trans pop back into gear about the time the motor was on its last revolution. After further inspections and looking around it seems tht the problem is further back in the transmission where the shift forks are.
I won't be able to remove the top plate till early next week...but I am hopefull that the problem will be obvious when I get the plate removed
