My 500 is eating drive belts between the two sheaves. It has also chewed through the cover. With the cover off, when I accelerate the front sheave (the one connected to the engine) will "shift" to the back a considerable distance, in effect loosening the belt. Would also explain the damage to the cover.
From visual inspection without pulling it all apart the motor mounts LOOK OK. But, could they be flexing too much from old age, or do I need to be looking for another problem? DOUG
 
sounds to me like you got a bearing out on that shaft your talking about.thats where i would suspect your problem is.sounds like you are referring to the crank shaft?. RICK
