Nick & bontai : Hey I am getting like see nile and that is not in Egypt. Anyway a late night and not proof reading has again caused me to back up a knotch. I did the resistance thing backwards it is simply Current draw= volts divided by ohms and not the opposite as I indicated by an amp reading in the previous reply.

So Nick if your pto clutch has 48 ohms of resistance you divide that into the voltage 12 and you should be drawing 1/4 amp or 250 milliamps. A milliamp is one thousandths of one amp, I like it cause it's like machining in thousandths of an inch 250 thousandths = 1/4 inch and so on. Anyway Nick if your pto clutch is holding in and the resistance is what it is supposed to be the clutch may not be your problem, I hope it isn't they are expensive. Maybe if it is bad we could find a used one off of a mower that the deck has rotted off. Oh well we are going to get this one fixed one way or another.

It's these interesting pain in the but problems that are fun to figure out but it doesn't sound like fun until it's fixed for little cost insread of a house payment.
