I have a 2009 YTS 4000 Model 917289283 which started banging when I let the brake pedal up
while cutting grass, soon I smelled burnt rubber (belt and pulleys were burning from friction)
I stopped tractor and dropped deck to see what was up.
Belt had slipped under the rear pulley of hydro drive in rear.
I Then noticed the idler pulley was (plastic) worn down on one side of the flat belt area (contact where belt meets pulley)]
I replaced the pulley along with new belt Everything worked fine for a week or so.
Then wam-o again the belt slipped under the pulley and smell again
This time it was a plastic vee grove pulley towards the front not the main flat one in center main.
I changed that also, now when I try to enguage the tractor it will move but not as fast but the noise is relly bad banging and jumping sort of
I went under and looked but belt and pulleys are brand new, I replaced the tension spring on main pulley assembly today but no good.
Basically every part is new and she still is banging really bad (never made this much noise and it is not normal.
Can anyone suggest where to look.
Thanks
