I believe the motion drive belt on my craftsman lawn mower is stretched. The belt is in place and is correctly run through the pulleys but there is a lot of slack with the belt. The machine will creep forward or back but barely at all.. How do I know if the belt is stretched?
Thanks.

I would check to see if the tension spring is still on tension pully first
You need to remove the deck to see the pullys for drive belt

To check the belt, take it off, have your model number handy and go to Lowe's HOME Improvement Center and find the matching size (Get the department employees help)
