    the drive belt is still draging the gearbox round look to see why its not letting go of the drive pully when the brake is pushed on the drive belt should go slack and slip round the pullys if its still tight find out why?

Murrym19546 riding mower want move why?
I would believe the mower is ran off a belt and the belt has stretched to the point and needs replacement. Raise the mower up and look under it and see if the drive belt is sloppy or loose.

Why isn't Lawnboy lawn mower model NO. 10604 drive not working
Inspect the pulley where the belt loops on the wheel transmission. There is a tension spring, that when you pull the level, it puts tension on the belt. If that spring is missing or the pulley does not provide tension the wheels will not turn because the transmission is not being engaed..

Please. Break pedal are stuck Dow and can be moved. Husqvana 2000. M-2000 YTH21K46
As you are pushing down the pedal use your hand to release the pedal lock lever. Or a belt popped off the drive pulleys and is binding the idler pulleys. Or so much grass has accumulated on transaxle its binding brake/Clutch pedal.

I just replaced the drive belt on my Troy built auto transmission Bronco 42" riding mower, and now it goes a lot slower. The belt seems to be routed correctly
The bronco is a variable speed mower from what I remember. There is a belt that goes from the crankshaft to a variable speed pulley and another belt from the variable to the transmission. If your 1st belt is too long it will never get up to speed. Do you have to push the pedal down further now than before to get it to move. ? If so your main belt is too long.

When in gear, the brakes won't stop my mower. Also, it's very difficult to shift out of gear once the mower is in gear (forward and reverse).

My riding mower stopped forward and reverse movement every once in a while..then it stopped completely. the engine is running fine and the throttle parts move when the pedal is pressed
Check the main drive belt. Without knowing your specific model and brand, its hard to be more detailed than that. Almost all riders have a main belt. When you look under your mower, there are usually two belts that come off of the drive shaft of the engine. One drives the mower deck and one drives the transmission for your mower. The way your mower "stopped forward and reverse movement every once in a while" tells me your belt developed a bad spot, then completely let go. Also, many mower companies host a website for their products. You can find your model's owners manuals, parts lists, and diagrams, to help you fix the mower yourself, which I highly recommend, if you are able. Shops in my area charge around $150.00 to $200.00 dollars to change a main belt.

Clutch vibration and jerking at slow speeds.
Check the drive belt. It probably has chunks missing or at least has flat spots (narrow spots) that cause the belt to jump every time it goes around a pulley. That will set up a heck of a vibration. Also check the pulleys for free movement. The drive belt is above the blade drive belt....
