Question I have a Sears T-1000 riding lawn mower. It is almost impossible to shift gears. When I depress the clutch/brake pedal, the lawnmower doesn't stop. It just keeps going like it is in neutral. Depressing the pedal doesn't make it any easier to shift either. Could the clutch be out of adjustment, and if so, how do I adjust?
