OK so with the PTO disengaged that pulley behind the button should turn some what freely and not turn over the engine correct? If it feels locked and does turns the engine over then the PTO is going to need to be removed and rebuilt correct? Any tips to unlock a stuck PTO without having to pull this off the engine and getting it rebuilt? And with the level engaged when turning that pulley it should turn the engine over.
I'll test this today and see how bad or good shape I'm in. Thank you
