I have a GT16 Sears garden tractor and when the primery belt broke I am not sure but I think it may have done something to it. The idler pulley next to the main engine pulley had been bent down. I took a crow bar and pushed it back in place and all seems ok. The spring action of it is working fine and the the location of the center of the idler pully to the frame is 7" like the manual says it should be. I adjusted the speed arm to the 1 " from center of arm to the outer edge of the pulley alke the manaul says it needs to be. I have tried every position of the turn buckle adjustment and it still doesn't work. When I push the arm forward the the primary belt is way to loose and secondary is tight and when I pull it back to slow position the primay is tight and the secondary is way to loose.There is no way to get the primary belt tight all the time so there for I cnat get both belts to work together. With out both belts being tight the drive train won't turn. I guess I don't know how this all sorks together or something is wrong. Any sugestions on what to do would be appreciated.
Thanks, PAul

You sure you have them routed right.
