Belt to small?

 The issue was resolved with an 82 1/2 " belt...as I suspected the 82" tight belt from John deer was gripping the engine flywheel too tight to be stopped by the thin metal pinch points  of the braking mechanism ( Also the new belt had significantly smoother profile with tighter cloth coating than the John deer belt) I thank all of you for your help God bless you.

Well now, we know the problem.  Putting a John Deere belt on a Wheel Horse.   :doh: :laughing-rolling:
