I have a Murray MODEL 309000x8B RER that I had to replace the stack pulley (among other things) on. Everything went well, and it ran OK afterwards. After mowing most of my yard, the mower stopped traveling and refused to move, the shift lever is extremely hard to budge. I checked the linkages, and it doesn't seem like anything fell off. Today, I tried to figure things out again and found the mower (running) went backwards, no matter which gear number the lever was at. Also the brake / clutch pedal seems to be backwards now. Moves backwards with the brake on and stops when the clutch is on. When the mower is off, the shift lever moves freely.
Think I need to replace the transmission?
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thank you,
Bob
