I’m getting a metallic jingle type of sound it appears to be coming from the PTO clutch. Does this sound indicative of the bearing going bad? Sound is most notice when engine is at speed and pto is not energized. The plate seems to be vibrating quite a bit as well

*****Decided to just order a clutch.

Very possible bearing is shot.

Age of and hours on your mower might help.

Age and hours have no relevance. A bad bearing can happen at 120 or 1200 hours.

A new clutch fixed the noise. Bad engine side bearing. Dry and very rough.

My thanks to those that replied here and provided positive input, and to those few who messaged me with the same. You guys are awesome. Thank you so much.
