Old snapper not moving

[Wpbrink1]

So I have an issue with my 3311x5s. When I put it in 1st gear it won't move. Second gear it moves but very very slow. Reverse works good. I have no idea where to start. There is gear oil in the case... I just received a yoke that I haven't installed yet...

You would need to check the drive disc area. You'll probably need adjustments to where it hits in 1st gear and may need to adjust the contact pressure? Might need a new drive disc too? That's a good place to start.

How do you adjust that? I didn't know if there's a video out there on how to do that stuff

Is the drive disc where it has like black rubber going around it?

Yes, its the rubber disc.

Videos from Jims Fix It series should get you there. These are things to check. Not necessarily needed but its the area to focus on.
