Sometimes, Lola just dosnt want to stop, even with a blade full of snow, If I push the clutch in, she will go another 6 feet or so before the clutch disengages. Her rear main oil seal does not leak , and i have not greased her throw out bearing latey, what could cause this ?

Does Lola have a mower or any other PTO load mounted also?

I have sicle bar for it, since giving it a ring job last fall , it seems to have more power so I might try the woods 59 on it this spring, Ilike the ride better than the yellow cub.

John, assuming you are using it enough there is no rust on the pressure plate, check the adjustment. If that isn't it you probably have either a friction plate disintegrating, or maybe a bent main shat causing it to drag.

I doubt there is rust on it and it dosnt do it every time, so im geussing the rivets are loose on the clutch plate. Ill see if Ican see it through the inspection hole.

This probably doesn't have anything to do with your problem but. But my rear main seal leaks. One day I sprayed gunk degreaser into the bell housing and washed it out. Well it froze solid I could not get it to release. I even tied the clutch peddle down and tried to move the clutch plate with a long screwdriver. Sprayed it down with PB blaster and it freed right up and I haven't had a problem with it since.

I assume your clutch is adjusted right.

I have this same problem with a new to me A. I have to hit the brakes withthe clutch pushed in to get it to stop. If I do not let the clutch out all the way, it works fine. I am assuming the clutch needs used, or the pressure plate needs a little oil in just the right spot.
