I have a troy-bilt riding mower and it sometimes gets stuck in gear and wants to keep moving whether it be forward or backward. I can put on the break and it still won't stop. I just had new drive belts put on. Could this have anything to do with it. If not what could be causing this to happen?

Check to be sure the motion control rod if this is hydro is not binding against the side rail of the frame. Have seen twings etc in it and just binding before.

The mower is not hydro, any other suggestions?

You need to adjust the drive belt, it is to tight.
