I have an LA105 that I thought the transmission went out in. When I put the lawn mower up after cutting the yard last time everything was in good running order. A week later I started the mower up and put it in reverse and it barley would move. I then put in in 1st gear and the same thing occurred...it barley moved and I smelled something like a clutch or brakes. I just automatically assumed it was the transmission. I ordered a transmission from Greenparts on line. I installed the new transmission last night with out a hitch until I put it in gear. To my dismay, and $350.00 lighter in the wallet, it did the same thing as it did with the old transmission it moved very slowly regardless of what gear it was put in.
I now am suspecting that it may be the drive belt. Before I go off on another tangent assuming that I know what is wrong and tear into trying to fix the problem I thought I would try and see what ideas others had about what is wrong and how to go about checking for the problem.
