Hey yall! For the second time, I have split my tractor. I thought that my clutch issue and the sound of clanging metal had been resolved when I removed the almost disintegrated piolet bushing and replaced with a new one. However, after putting the tractor back together, I started it up and put it in gear and she took off as normal. First, then second, when I went to third the noise came back and the tractor came out of gear and would not move again. After spliting the tractor for a second time, I took a good look and everything seemed to look good. That is until I grabbed the clutch shaft (shaft that the throwout bearring sits on) and gave it a pull. The shaft came out of the gears but not all the way through the opening. I pushed it back in and it locked into place when trying to twist clockwise or counterclockwise, but when pulled toward the front of the tractor it slides out of the gears... Is that supposed to happen? I think this is the clanging noise that I was hearing. Should I replace the trowout bearring and spring? I'm at a loss! I don't have a repair manual or a parts manual and I don't have an extra 100.00 laying around to get them. Could someone please help me figure this out? Thanks in advance to anyone that takes the time to help me!
