CLJII 0 #1 Posted 18 hours ago I have this mower with a body in very good condition, but had a frozen 11 horse B & S and about a 25 degree axle lash. I repowered it and am disappointed in the 'grab' that occurs when I engage the clutch. I've never had one of these transmissions apart so am looking to someone with experience. Is there a 'fix' for this problem? Do I replace the trans or just live with it? [The trans is a Peerless 801-028]. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,964 #2 Posted 7 hours ago Is the drive belt completely fabric covered? You are describing what happens when a belt with raw rubber sides is used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CLJII 0 #3 Posted 2 hours ago When I got the 211-5, there was no belt. I measured for the replacement and purchased a 'standard' V-belt from a local supplier [raw rubber sides]. Didn't know of a 'fabric covered' belt. Will give that a go. Thank you for your prompt response. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for your prompt response. Often referred to as an Aramid or Kevlar wrapped belt. Usually a buck or two more than the raw rubber sibling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
