Hey Guys,
Need some help again. Just got up the nerve to go take the clutch shaft out and look at the clucth. I had run the motor with the shaft not completely connected, just one bolt in actually. Broke the piece that bolts up to the top of the housing that holds the shaft/throwout and the sleeve. Got new ones, put them in, though I was ok. Drove her for about 15 minutes and started feeling a little rattle underneath as I let clutch out. Got home and shaft was not rotating smoothly and looked like the clutch as not either. The center where that shaft goes through is off kilter. Grandad thought it had to be the shaft being bent, but I took it out and ran it and looked up inside and can see it"s not rotating right even without the shaft. The flywheel is good and turning smooth, and the plate looks ok, just the center seems to be wobbling.
Any ideas on what I"ve done and what I might need to do to fix it?
When I ran it without the shaft in right, the shaft swung out to the outside as it rotated on one bolt making a big circle around the piece it connects to going into the transmission.
As you can imagine I"m feeling pretty stupid about now.

The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
