Tell me it isn't the clutch
 
Because the one time I worked on my clutch I swore I'd never do it again. I'm not that good of a mechanic and it was a PIA.

My 108 stopped moving. I was just able to coax it into the garage by holding the clutch pedal at a certain, partially depressed spot. Snow is heavy, I lost my job and have literally NO money for parts and I have no heated space to work on it. So like I said...


...tell me it isn't the clutch. Unless whatever it is is even worse than the clutch...

From here it doesn't look like the clutch.

But, then again, you gave no usable information, no pictures.....:beatdeadhorse:

I don't know what more I can say. I was plowing, and it stopped moving. The only way I could budge it back into the garage was by nursing/feathering the clutch pedal at a partially depressed spot and it creeped slowly into the garage, just barely.

I've told you everything I know.

I'd pull the tunnel cover off and check the spiral pins where the driveshaft goes into the rearend.

Wayne 12-16-2015 01:50 PM

I'll do that as soon as I stop crying. :crap:

Beat me to it. Had the same issue and it was the rear most spiral pin on my drivshaft

Were you able to coax it into slow motion like I did?

I can't speak to his experience but I can tell you that when you push the clutch down it pushes the driveshaft back against the rearend and that extra bit of friction could be why it moved when you pushed the clutch down a bit. I'd go pull the cover and start the tractor and try to move the tractor, keep a good eye on the shaft going into the trans to see if its spinning, its usually the rear most pin that breaks first and if you replace one you better replace both.

I'm willing to bet it is the rear most Spiro pin also! Good luck with it

Wayne 12-16-2015 02:40 PM

I'm a bit confused (not uncommon). But the shaft spins even when its in neutral
so I'm not sure what I'm looking for when its in gear
