LGT2654 little or no drive

[gregboggess]

This a lever drive mower and it loses drive function after mowing for 30 minutes. I have replaced the drive belt twice, the lack of drive persists I am at a loss. Could it be the transmission, or transmission fluid low?

Did you replace both of the V-idlers? Both are of plastic/nylon composite which wears heavily. So much that the drive bottom out thus making even a new drive to slip as it heats up..

Once both the drive and v-idler are replace and you still have motion drive problems then yes it transaxle related.

How old is the mower
What is it's model number
How noisy are the drives
Rare on a ztr for both hydros to pack it in at the same time
Very common for left side to fail first
