Cant give any #s because there long gone from mower.Neighbor lady asked if i could look at her mower[Didnt want to say snapper]Said it tore up 2 years ago,her son pushed it over to my garage and stood it up ans first thing i noticed was the large belt pully broke also idler had come apart[in half]i have put a heep of belts on these things but cant find belt to fit.Tryed a 68in snapper and a 72 in snapper belt one slightly to small other to big.[By the way i took pullys to small engine place and he gave me new pullys,both identical to broke ones, small idler 4",large belt front pully 7"]I,ve spent all day standing that thing up on end several times checkin what i,ve done and cant figure it out.I,m in a wheelchair and old as hell and hard to stand them thing up to many more times.I know belt goes from rear pully to around large one in front then to the inside of the idler.Is there a belt in betweem 68 and 72 in?Mower appers to me as being about 15 years old or so,30" single pedel job,any ideas,bout to wear this old guy out.Thanks

I'm not sure what you have either without some numbers. I have a 1991 model RER with a 33" cut. It also has one pedal but it takes a 73" belt so obviously mine's not like your neighbors. If you could post a picture of it, quiet possibly some of the guys who deal a lot with Snappers could identify it for you. Hope you get it figured out and best of luck on getting some help to stand it up again!

Well the one thing nice about gettin old is having a senior moment,compleatly forgot about looseing clamp under seat and adjusting belt length that way.What can i say!One darn thing is when i get done standing that thing up again is my arms will be in great shape.Sometimes being in wheelchair sucks!Thanks

My 1978 snapper comet has only one pedal if you find the belt size for a 26 in cut 1978 comet with a 5 hp Briggs let me know
