This is fairly common as the groove in the shaft/piston wears and eventually the lock ring can not hold the outer half of the variable speed sheave in place. When it fails it will almost always break the swivel or the line fitting. A combination of the oil on everything and no pressure on the sheave there is not enough tension for the belt to drive the jackshaft = no movement. You need parts manual & service manual to do this job…..it's not something I can describe to you without part numbers and correct part names.</p></blockquote><p></p>
