Hi, I just bought a second (more like 5 or 6) hand riding lawnmower, was advertised as a Craftsman but my brother-in law said it's a MTD 42" deck. Someone painted it black and painted over the model number under the seat but I scrapped off some of the dirt on the front of the engine and there's a number engraved there which I cannot read till I remove the front of the hood. The seller guess's it's a 1990 something.
Everything seems to work ok till I put it away in the shed and it wouldn't come out of drive. Today I checked the tranny lever and was able to move it into forward-neutral-reverse easily so I drove it around to the other side of the house and stopped but it wouldn't come out of drive again. I shut the engine off and was able to move the tranny lever again.
Would this be a simple clutch adjustment fix or am I not that lucky ? Thanks in advance.
