13BX60TG766 With foot pedal (hydrostat) transmission.
Reverse is fine and dandy. But forward is a completely different story.
From the right side, when I press the foot pedal, I I can see everything turn as it's supposed to. The big pulley on top turns as fast as I mash the pedal. But, there's a LOT of slipping going on and some grinding like noise. It'll sort of catch of like a half second, then slip again.
As I said it doesn't seem like the belt is slipping. The drive belt pulleys from the engine aren't stuck. They need to be replaced. But they turn by hand just a little noisy.
Is this a bad transmission? Or am I not seeing or checking something?
