I have a Murray riding lawn mower. Something happened last night when parking it, and now I can't get it to go into gear. I can press theclutch in, but it's difficult, and when I let it out, the enginesqueals and won't go in gear. It starts fine, and the mower deckworks. I tried putting the engine in gear a few times, and it wouldjust lurch forward, but then immediately squeal. When I press theclutch in, it doesn't have any effect on the drive belt at all, unlikeit should ...
This happened once before and a friend unloosened something that was locked up, but I don't remember what he did.

Hello:
>>From your Description it Sounds like the Clutch Idler Pulley Bearing have Seized and the Idler Pulley cannot/is not Turning and the Squeal is the Belt Dragging Across the Pulley.
>>Just because there is No Smoke Does Not mean the Belt is Not Slipping.
>>I Suggest you Remove the Deck and Check All the Pulleys and Especially the Clutch Idler and Idler Arm Bracket.

How would I find the model number of the mower? Why does the mower deck have anything to do with this problem? The mower deck works fine, but it's when I let out the clutch that all $*$*$*$ breaks loose and it's noisy, and I smell a bit of burning - the drive belt I assume. The clutch is much much harder to push in now. Is there a good diagram that shows if there is something wrong with the clutch or whatever is supposed to happen to make the mower go into gear?
