Sounds like you either have a bad bearing in the pullys or pully or the guides that keep that belt in place are not doing their job. Any repair shop can change out a belt. However, fixing it is another thing. I had a customer who said every since he had his lawn tractor the belt wouldn't last long enough to get a summer out of it. I found the spring missing of the tensioner pully for the belt when it's engaged and also the guide for the belt was on backwards and therefore cutting the face of the belt.

If you disengage the Blades like you normally would, this will give you plenty of slack in the belt to put back on. There should be a pulley or lever that tensions the belt when it is engaged and that is what is causing it to be too tight to put back on. Hope this helps

You may find that you have the wrong belt - I bought a belt for the correct model and then found that there are two different sizes depending on the exact model - they are 3 inches different in length for my model CTH160 113" and 110". Got correct belt and fits properly now.

Sue your brother is right! I had the same problem and it turned out to be the gas cap. the small breather hole on the top was plugged with dirt. once I cleaned it out I took the rubber gasket out from the bottom of the cap and cleaned that as well. runs great now.

first make sure the belt is not hitting anything when the blade is engaged (engine off), the if ok remove belt and look in pulley grooves for rocks or chips., then run finger all around groove to make sure there is no catches or spurs. If that is all ok then with belt on and engine idleing as slow as possible and blade engaged look and see if pulley is wobbling, BE CAREFULL !! look at the engine pulley first then with EXTREME CAUTION look under deck from opposte side of chute. ( Check with deck at highest setting)
