update.
after talking with guys at auto shop in town, another customer pointed me in direction of small junkyard s ome 20 miles away. went and owner knew right off what i wanted, went over to cobbled up lawn tractor and unscrewed driven gear and it was exact match and not worn down like old. i said how much and he said $2 but he wanted old one to plug hole on his machine.
i thru him $5 and left. n this has fixed the "turn the cable" problem, but now i must work on speedo. i can get the odo "ten'ths" to drive but no other milage numbers turn when it goes from 9 to 0. also speedo needle will not move. this is odd since the needle would move when i spun cable with drill motor.
still have not id tranny.
