My tractor will run fine for about 40 feet. The engine will keep running but it will not drive anymore. What will cause this?
Check and see if there is a shear or safety pin in one of the drive pulleys that has broken.See if there is a pulley that turns by hand when this happens. Could be one has broken but grabs for a little bit. Also check the drive belt and see if it is slipping Check all the drive areas . BE SAFE BY TAKING THE KEY OUT AND TRYING BY HAND>

Hello eireannachcr:
>>Check All the Fuel Connections and Make Sure they are Tight.
>>From Your Description it Sounds like a Loose Fitting or a Bad Compression Washer.
>>A Bad Compression Washer or Loose Fitting will Allow the Fuel to Drain Backwards (sometimes it takes setting for a few days for the Fuel to Bleed Back) when the Engine is Not Running. Once the Engine is Started, it Runs Correctly Until the Air Pocket in the Fuel Gets to the Injector Pump and then the Engine Stalls. The Fuel Behind the Pocket Keeps the Pump and Lines Primed so the Engine will Restart without Bleeding Any Air from the Fuel System.
>>You can View a Breakdown/IPL of the Engine and Mower at this Site Addy, http://jdpc.deere.com/jdpc/servlet/com.deere.u90490.partscatalog.view.servlets.HomePageServlet_Alt and Enter the Model Numbers and Click Find. Then Select your Model from the Search Results Area. Then Select the Sectional File. Then Select the Section of the Mower you Wish to View Online. *You can Drag the View Windows for Better Viewing.*
Please, Do Not Hesitate, If I Missed Something or you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem, I am Here if You Require More Assistance.
Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Be Happy. Thanks.
Good Luck

I also have a Craftsman tractor with the same problem. Sears repairman said it needed a new transmission and it would cost $1,400 to install. A new one is about $1,000. Anyway, if you remove the battery and the battery tray under the seat it will expose the transmission fill hole (hex). I opened the top and it looked empty. I had a bottle of 90 weight gear oil in my shop and filled the transmission to the top. I have not had any problems with it since. $4.00 bottle of oil verses a new tractor is worth a try.

those fluid drive transmissions fail on quite a few brands as they all use the same ones....replace the trans...they are expensive but still cheaper than a new mower.

Not sure if it has exactly what you need, but here is the manual for the LX425 Toro
